Issue with the beat
Hi All, got a problem which I hope someone can help me with.
So I bought the car after it was sitting in the elements for 2 years - hornets nest everywhere. Took a bit of effort to get it started and drove it home. After a couple of months driving, it would shut off randomly and wont start up again for 30 mins or so. sometimes the relay clicks erratically and when this happens the fuel pump will not prime. If I keep turning the key from off to acc, sometimes relay will click once like normal and fuel pump will prime. I have swapped relays with a DIY 5 pin relay and the issue remains. the random shut offs happened 3 times. Each time i was lucky enough to be able to start and drive the car home (after waiting >30 mins that is).
I did some research online and have crossed out the below
- dizzy cap was found to be cracked - so have replaced with new known working dizzy
- lined up dot with line on dizzy and put engine in TDC before inserting dizzy.
- resoldered main relay
- DIYed 5 pin relay
- new spark plugs - checked for spark and they were strong blue sparks
- swapped known working ecu
- injectors were serviced, flow tested and cleaned.
I did a compression test and they were showing 125 on all 3 cylinders....... that looks low to me.. anyone know what the stock number should be?
I will run a wet test soon and see if the numbers change
Any other things i should check?
