as if i want it!

go good in my collection

lol Sorry im keeping it for a while!!!

Getting the car sorted out over the weekend for a roady. Seems it has a starting up issue like its flooding itself.
On starting it seems to just sit and crank over and not fire but on pushing down to WOT it will fire up.
Im thinking its leaky injectors however if anyone has some idea's let me now please.

I have replaced
-Dizzy Cap
-Rotor Button
- Plugs
-Leads
Still seems to be there.

Wreck it out!
Problem solved

Maybe coil/TFI module as well

sell it to me, problem solved

fuel pressure reg?

and put seat covers on it, dont wear them seats out!

ebglt its sounds to me that it has leaky injectors.
when you remove the plugs do they come out wet?
you can chech the injectors with a a4 piece of paper. pull the injectors out but leave them plugged in and put the paper underneath injector then let it sit for a while.
the injectors leaking the most will have the most wet patch on the paper.
You may already know that trick but thought it might help.

Cheers

Never heard that before but thanks mate ill give that a go.
I have a set of standard ones that I removed from EBGLT when I went bigger ill more than likely just change em over and see how they go.

fair enough just thought id throw you a new idea.
learnt it at work on the BMW's as they all flood when they get older.

Thanks

Sounds definitely like a leaking injector or injectors. When you hold it at WOT then ECU cuts fuel, so the flooding clears and it fires up. Takes all of 10 minutes to change injectors on EA-ED, don't worry about tests, just get on it.

Agreed!!

Id replace the coolant temp switch to be sure as they can tell the comp to pump more fuel then needed as it thinks its still cold

Anyone confirm this is a Sprint/EB GT cluster?



Cleans up pretty good.

Yeah the Sprints for sure (and I'd presume EBGT as well) had the 5500 redline.

Cheers mate.

Pic before I took it to C4C yesterday.

If youre still having the problem, I had the exact same. Was a fucked fuel pressure reg. Replaced and away we go. Still hve a couple of other issues, but it fires up straight away every time.

turned out to be a dud fuel pump

Yeah stupid thing. Lucky I had a new one sitting in the garage!!
