Fc3s egi barn find

I\'m gonna go with blocked injectors too. If the plugs are dry and there is power at the injectors then its deffo where I would start.

I\'m not sure if there is power at the injectors though the upper pair certainly don\'t have any power at them when cranking but the ecu is getting power at the injector pins that prof mentioned I\'ll work it out tho

[B.Martin]

Is that Redex stuff no good? Can you find a way to get some of that into the inctors for a few hours?

[wolfie1]

can you not pull the injectors plug them into the rail and turn it over and see if they squirt?

[Kamatari]

i should have a spare ecu still i can find out

[the hat]

Cheers the ecu would be great as it just rules that out hopefully tonight I will have checked the injectors too see if there blocked and tried the dizzy as mr and Ian are heading back over too the car in a little while

[the hat]

Ok so tonight we achieved nothing but we did find that the injectors are not blocked by manually opening them one at a time and the cAr attempts too start when doing so

So I looked inside the ecu but nothing looks damaged
 

Then I attempted too check for power at the tps but found nothing


I also opened the main relay and everything was fine inside and working as it should

Someone please help me I\'m ready too do this now

[B.Martin]

Excuse my simpleness, but its not like something daft like a flat battery is it?

[grinder]

bad earth somewhere ?

is the ECU seeing the full 12v ?

Not sure how the TPS works , but does that get feed a direct 12v feed , or looped thru the ECU ?

Have you checked all the fuses in the engine bay ( with a meter not just visually )

I know it sounds really silly , if you remove the ecu and try and start the car .. does it do EXACTLY the same thing as its doing now ?

[the hat]

I\'ve not tried starting with the ecu disconnected and I don\'t know the pin outs for te ecu sadly

And no I just visually checked every fuse in the car and under the bonnet and checked too see there is power getting too the fuses I\'ll replace the lot of them next time and see what happens

As for bad earths I added extra earths by using a set of jump leads with one connected too the engine and one from the body straight too the battery negative terminal

And no not a flat battery unfortunately

Hope the last pic gave someone a laugh

[grinder]

i have the pin outs of the ecu somewhere ( might be in the factory manual )

let me nosey

[grinder]

not sure if this helps

[grinder]

i have loads of stuff on the egi .. but no idea whats relevant and what isnt

and its 80mb in PDF\'s

I might bebale to zip it up and get it to you somehow ??

[wolfie1]

was it a lighter or a water pistol?

[the hat]

Gas powered air gun fella funny thing is I just found it and joked about only too finfmd it was loaded and working eek lol
