hi guys,

Haveing some problems with the fuel delivery to my engine. Engine wasn't starting the other day, so after reading some threads about people who had the same problem i came to the conclusion that it is something to do with the fuel system, i therefore checked to see if any fuel came out of the fuel filter (filter was just replaced a month ago) when the engine was cranked...nothing. I have located the relay where the ECU is and the one in the boot, how exactly do i go about checking them to see if there the problem? Any other things i can do to check what it is that is wrong????

cheers.

had same problem awhile back with in my S2 33...no fuel getting to engine. checked fuses and relay all fine turned out fuel pump had died. they seem to pack up shop alot in skylines so im thinking it will be the pump.

take the fuel pump out which is under the floor on the right side of the boot.....

see if there is any voltage getting to it, and when you turn the ignition on you should hear it prime the lines and buzz away, if 1 there is no voltage then it might be a relay...

or the common cause is the fuel pump has died... there is voltage but no action....

Get a new pump if its the 2nd one :happy:

Ya get a new bigger better one!!!! I had this problem - my car was broke for days while I tried to figure out what was wrong. We pulled the pump and replaced with a 550. Now is great! :)

O, if you do get a bigger one don't forget an FPR or computer will be in order after a while.

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
