Intermittent no start issue (fuel pump)

Postby Bleunos » Mon, 25 Nov 2019 3:21 +0000

Hey guys, just wondering have any of you had intermittent starting issues before?

Basically the fuel pump isn't getting power sometimes, I don't think it's relays as I've already swapped the fp relay out for an admittedly second hand unit but I had the same issue.

I think it could be the cam angle sensor, I got it started last night and it was running lumpy and rich. I did a track day in it a month or 2 ago and it seems to have gotten worse sense then.

I can force the fuel pump to run by crossing fp and ground in the obd box in the engine bay. Would a cas cause a lack of power to the fuel pump? It could also be related to the immobilizer but I'd prefer if it isn't!

You can borrow the CAS from my car to test, it's not moving for a few weeks.
