cheers guys
Looked at the vid Brian, that's the sort of thing I was getting regarding negative pressure
hmm, getting strange pressure readings in the rail
when first I tried earlier the rail pressure was only 6psi
however I then started to get 310 in the rail, when cranking
does not start so keep cranking and the pressure just goes down and down until it ends up at 9psi
turn off ignition and then it does the same again
so looks like the pressure is not building up for some reason, could be pump with leaky seals
or maybe the valve on the pump. I did energise the valve via the clip and all you can hear is
some high pitched sound coming from the valve, don't know if that normal or not or a sign of a problem
I will take it off tomorrow anyway and see what its like, I have heard these can go faulty
I do have a new low pressure pump here, got it ages ago, so might fit it in case the old
one is not lifting enough fuel
one thing I noticed , I have the pipe from head to EGR removed (the one that takes exhaust to the EGR)
and this does give out some smoke when cranking, so I guess its just unburned fuel ?
The clip shows air temp as 50 degrees C, no way is the air temp that
guess that's the one in the door mirror
One thing the car is doing now is when ignition on, the car after a few seconds displays "OK"
then the time comes up and a couple of seconds later the zig-zag comes up on the display
I really think there is not much stopping the car from starting its just trying to find it !
