Hey all,
The problem that I'm having is that on Tuesday my wagon ran and drove okay, but later in the evening the car would not start at all, just crank crank crank and nothing. I tested the pumps by jumping fuses 4 and 6 and I could not hear any pumps going, which would make me suspect that the fuel pump/pumps are bad? The car has the K-Jet system but appears to have a later pump setup(?), with an in-tank pump and another pump underneath the car further forward from the tank.
It seems like the fuel pump has given up the ghost but from IPD's site it mentioned that a fault in the primary ignition system prevents the pumps from turning on, which seems a bit more likely knowing that the car ran/drive decently earlier.
Any thoughts/tips on what to do next? I haven't ordered anything yet because I'm not 100% sure I've correctly diagnosed the problem yet. Another thing I should mention is that I can't work on the car at the moment because I had to drive up to Bellingham for a meeting with a course advisor and I won't be back home until Sunday which throws a wrench in the works, but if I can get a list of things to troubleshoot I think I'll be able to figure out what's wrong once I get back.
Thanks,
Jonathan
