Important! : fueling problem 106 quicksilver to gti conversion

  1. #1
    as previous thread car ran no problem then wouldn't start changed the fuel relay 3 times to make sure , fuel pump, injectors, rail, pressure regulator and crank sensor

    removed the rail with injectors, 3 sprays of fuel then nothing I pour fuel down the throttle body and it fires up then cuts out again

    ran fine then would not start all of a sudden

    I have changed the fuel rail, injectors, fuel pressure regulator, fuel pump , fuel relay and the crank sensor

    theres 3 spurs of fuel on prime then nothing so I checked there was power at the fuel pump theres only power to prime then no more power to pump

    any ideas

    Tried an unlocked ECU?

    I have a single plug 1.6 8v ECU that will get the engine running. That will let you know if it's an ECU problem.

    Plus I'm only down the road in Perth.

    What happens when you run a constant live to the pump so its always running?

    If you've started it without the immobiliser/ pickup ring etc then the ECU will have locked and will need to be unlocked by someone who knows how to do it. (it involves flashing the EEPROM on the ECU)
