Hey guys, thought i would turn to the experts for some advice as im not having much luck.
last week i replaced my O-rings on my fuel injectors after it smelling pretty badly of fuel after acceleration and idling at the lights, got them all on and put everything back together and started it up now the problems all began from here. first off it ran for about 5 minutes or so just testing the rev's and what not and all of a sudden it just cut out. we traced it back to be the "ENG CTRL" fuse. the standard amperage fuses in these are ment to be 10, after figuring this out the car would blow every fuse up to a 25 amp fuse, but not a 30 amp. i managed to fix this problem it turned out to be a sensor that sits on top of the thermostat ( ive forgotten what its called).
Now the car cranks on a 10 amp fuse just fine, but still not turning over. ive checked for fuel and yes there is fuel. ive checked for spark and there is none coming from the ignition module (coil) but there is power to the module itself. after thinking that i was on a win, i went and bought a new one and swapped it all over, plugged it in, and to my surprise it still wont turn over. there is still power at the module.
while we had the problem with the engine control fuse we did many tests, one being that if it had spark, and yes it did. i have checked all fuses and relays and they all seem to be in working order.
after doing some test's today ive found that there was no power at the "throttle Position sensor", which has got me thinking after a friend tested it the other day and had power there.
now my questions is, does anyone have any idea what it could be? do these motors have "crank angle sensors"? what else can i check?
thanks in advance, Liam
