Hi all
I have just read Frogs wonderful troubleshooting pages on fuel injection etc and now my head really hurts!
I have had all the major fuel tank issues resulting in a new fuel pump. In-tank it works i.e. spurts fuel.
Q1. If I take the fuel line off at the Injector rail should fuel come out ? OR should it only come out when I hit the start button? It is currently running out slowly?
I am working my way down the line as the tank had the dreaded pump rubber disintegration and some of it may have worked its way into the system.
Next is to remove the rail and see if fuel comes out there. Then take out the injectors and do the same...
Q2. Would it be likely/possible the fuel regulator could be blocked? Or would a new pump push rubber bits through the system?
Thanks for all the help I know I am going to get on this one! This is the best forum ever when you are about to hit your head with a brick...
