Title: Problem with fuel pump priming
Post by: R1Dude on November 02, 2012, 09:32:10 AM
Hi all I have a problem with an FD its a 94 with standard setup and I can`t get the fuel pump to prime and have no fire, I have checked everything I can and traced and continuity tested every wire that controls the fuel system and I`m stuck, so could anyone tell me what tells the circuit opening relay to activate on pre ignition so the fuel pump primes? regards Ade :)

Have you checked the egi fuse in the fise box bolted to the battery terminal? This controls the pump.

Hi mate, I replaced the egi with relay with one off my own car which I know works and it`s still the same :(

there is a diagnostic box in the passenger side of the engine bay near the oil fill neck, run a wire between the GND & F/P connectors & turn the ignition on, this should power the fuel pump & prime the system, you should be able to hear it

have you tried starting it while this wire is running fuel pump?

Yes mate still doesn\'t fire, also now I have no spark, I\'ve swapped all fuses and relays, tested all wires, I have voltage everywhere but at the black wire with the green stripe that loops from the egi relay into the open circuit relay under cranking I get 6 volts but still no fuel or spark :(
