BigC1988 Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 I put a RB25 S2 in my R32. We finished the wiring but only cranks and won't start. The engine is getting spark but no fuel. The fuel pump works fine but still noting. We put fuel in the intake and it start up fine. Im guessing the injectors arent firing. The grey wire gives 12V but when I try to start it it goes down to about 8V or lower. I still have to put a 12V wire on the VCT, AAC ect wire. Could this keep the injectors from firing?

Cjmartz2k Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Take the CAS off the front of the car, put the key in the "run" position and spin the nipple on the CAS. Can you here the injectors ticking?

BigC1988 Posted June 5, 2009 Author Share Posted June 5, 2009 yes I hear them clicking, what could be the problem ? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/273285-r32-rb25-spark-but-no-fuel-wont-start/#findComment-4638311 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cjmartz2k Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Well, if the injectors are ticking, that means they should be working. THat's the sound of them opening. You say the pump works. How did you verify? Do you have good pressure? Did you actually check to see if it's getting to the rail? Did you put the fuel lines going into the rail backwards?

blind_elk Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Have you got the fuel lines on the right way? (yes stupid question, I know) Have you got fuel pressure? (just because the pump works doesn't measn you have pressure) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/273285-r32-rb25-spark-but-no-fuel-wont-start/#findComment-4638340 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigC1988 Posted June 5, 2009 Author Share Posted June 5, 2009 i measured the gray wire it shows it has 12 v .. and when i measure the ground wire it also shows 12v, when the key switch is on "run". when I test the wires together (the gray wire, injector ground ) it shows around 2v , 3volt..(when the key switchis on "run") what could be the problem?

Cjmartz2k Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 Did you double check to make sure your fuel lines aren't put on backwards? It happens a lot. That's why I mentioned it and blind elk echoed the same thing less than a minute later. Very common.

BigC1988 Posted June 6, 2009 Author Share Posted June 6, 2009 yes i double checked , they arent put on backwards, did you see my post about the voltage?

That's why I mentioned it and blind elk echoed the same thing less than a minute later. Very common. I first changed the fuel filter and removed the regulator and put the switch on "run", let it pump for 2 sec and then put it back on. After that I tried again and VRooommm !! I guess the rail (and injectors) were dirty. Tomorrow I'll clean then and hope that that. Thanks for the help and suggestions.
