hey guys,

i have had my gtr sitting for about a year and went to start her yesterday and she doesnt want to kick over??

anyways i checked everything out and 4 out of 6 of the coil packs were sitting in water (down where the plug is), looks like it has been sitting there a while too. so i got all the cr@p out and fixed that up.

also, the fuel has turned to varnish.. i took the filter out on the pump side to find out if i have any pressure. i turned the key and some fuel came out but not that much and then after about 4 seconds it started dripping like it was clogged? i turned it off and then back on and there was nothing still? waited 30seconds and redid it and pressure and then it died again!

im wondering if the pump is dead, causing it not to crank over? or could it be the spark plugs.. new iridums.

ok, injectors were fully flow tested and cleaned today, they were fully blocked..

still.. she is not cranking over, put some aerostart in the vac lines and she wanted to start but couldnt..

i am begining to think its the CAS. it might be stuffed or seomthing??? i dont believe i am getting any power to the injectors.

either that or the ECU is stuffed!

i need some advice here!!!!!!!!!

It may have fouled plugs, pull one out and see if there wet with fuel.

so i take it you're sure the injectors are firing properly now? maybe pull them out and take the cas off and give it a spin too verify that they are properly working..

after having the coil packs sitting in water for so long perhaps the springs that sit inbetween the bottom of the coil pack and the spark plug have become corroded, try checking them out :D

U need to remove an injector plug from the top of one of the injectors and insert a noid light in the plug.

If u are getting a signal from the ecu the light will flash,meaning if u have spark like u say its not likely

the ecu. Next step would be to check compression.

U may be able to purchase a noid light from repco etc or borrow one from your mechanic.

Good luck

Mate trhis may sound silly but have you changed the fuel filter since you said it was blocked? If you really wana know, pull out your injectors, crank the car & see if they spray fuel. Maybe even one will do... Do the same with your plugs if you havent already
