Guest jagman Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Hi everyone my better half XR3i has decided it does want to start. I've check the plugs and theres a good spark and you can hear the fuel pump when you turn the key. the fuel seems to be getting as far as the injector rail but not passed the injectors. Could it be the crank postion sensor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest taz1787 Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 could be blocked injectors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers for that fella. Just checked it again this morning and there's no spark at all now. also the fuel shut off in the boot had tripped. pushed it back in but still nothing. The fuel is definately getting through to the injector rail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mossop1 Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 If you got fuel to the rail and no inector pulse and no spark i would think crank sensor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KRYSS Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 had the same problem on a 3i a few years back ... called the AA out and as far as i can remember it was someting to do with a relay switch under the dash think it was black relay but not 100% sure though ... got to be worth a look see the one on mine had burnt out so the AA guy jumped it with a bit of wire and solder but needed to change it asap kryss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
