It nearly runs - errrr - So close

if its injection it should be returning all the time. just put 12v on the fuel pump. do you know how many bar the fuel pump produces? i would guess the regulator on the fuel rail is either 2.5 or 3 bar

by pass is fine. i capped mine off but not sure if it would cause a problem on a v6. certainly wouldnt stop it starting

I'm using brand new FSE Sytec (Bosch 0580254911) Ford Sierra 2.8i 4X4 Injection Fuel bullet pump with a FSE Sytec Universal Fuel Injection Pump Pre Filter.

Are the plugs wet?

Try lifting the air plate a little by hand.

It was brand new plugs, but I will check this, cheers

[AshG]

i think he ment is there fuel on the plugs although i could be wrong.

has it got an auto choke?

[twinturbo]

If it's the 2.8 MFi in his pics then it will not have a choke..


TBH... I hate K-Jet. I spent 3 hrs trying to revive my m8's MK2 golf 16V after a 6 month layup!!


Does the 2.8 have the cold start valve, that can be rigged to spray a little fuel in if the main injectors are not firing..

Other than that and lifting the air plate to stimulate fuel preasure I don't remember much about the 2.8 MFi set up.

ask on www.xrstyle.co.uk/forums

Yes, it does have a cold start valve, how can this be rigged to spray fuel? It sounds like most of my problems are fuel related? That's all the bits I replaced, so have a good few tips to try again on Thursday. Cheers Guys
