have you checked for power to the injectors?

footlongphil 13-07-2012 08:00 PM

i could if i knew how.....

cozzy jeff 13-07-2012 08:04 PM

remove the plug from the injectors and check for 12v with ignition on,the earth is pulsed to fire the injector.

footlongphil 13-07-2012 08:12 PM

cheers,i will do in the morning..if no live is it down to the ecu ???

cozzy jeff 13-07-2012 08:35 PM

im unsure,the ecu switches the earth not the live feed.

footlongphil 13-07-2012 08:41 PM

ok cheers,i have done the conversion before with no problems,it started first flick,but this one has been a pain from start ,cheers

footlongphil 13-07-2012 09:24 PM

just checked the injectors and have no voltage (0.20)..what now the world ???

cozzy jeff 13-07-2012 10:05 PM

You need to check you've got power to the ecu,also check that all your sensors are plugged in and gapped corectly

The OE setup powers the injectors via the ECU relay, so long as they have a switched 12V + supply, as said the ECU switches the ground.
