wonder if any1 can give me a little insight into the workings of the injection system

 

i've brought my car home (towed) but i cant get her started

 

its deffo a fuel problem as my spark plugs are dry as a bone. however my knowledge of the fuel injection is erm headscratchin..!

 

i have fuel leaving the injection system to 2 points which are to the cold start & the warm up regulator but i'm not getting any fuel fed to the main jets.

 

i was wondering weather it could be a lazy fuel pump or a blocked fuel filter?

 

any help appreciated

 

cheers

John

cheers for the reply m8

 

stuck as in blocked or does it have a valve of some sort that regulates the fuel timing into the inlet manifold. I'm not sure what to look for if i split it
