R32 Turns Over But Doesn't Start

[Braeden]

hey,

Just inherited an R32 skyline.... The car has been sitting around for about 2 years.

It wont start..Turns over perfectly just wont pop into life! Where do i start?

I know nothing about these engines. Is there any suggestions or should I take it straight to my mechanics? which will involve in me spending $$$

Thanks!

Is it fresh fuel?

I would be changing the fuel and fuel filter.

Then check for spark,

As Mr dvs suggested put some fresh fuel in it. If the car was running prior to being parked, its probably just fuel gone stale. If you know how you can check injector pulse and see if its getting a spark.

as above, if the fuel is old then it will be stale and be most of the problem. the fuel lines may also be a bit gummed up. try pulling off a fuel line and seeing if fuel is getting to the engine.

you could also try tipping a very small amount of fuel into the plenum and see if that makes a difference. if it does then you know your problem is fuel related

Fresh fuel was poured in, pulled off a fuel line and fuel was there....so fuel doesn't look like the problem..

How do you check for spark in these?

[Spurdo]

easiest way is a timing light. shove the pickup onto the wiring that goes into number 1 coil and see if theres anyone home when you turn the key.

have you had a look at the plugs?

injectors CAN seize shut when not used for a while, may pay to check that

Has been taking into my mechanics as I have no spare time anymore. Thanks for your help guys

Let us know what they find

[Braeden]

Nothing was wrong.. Good fuel supply, good compression, has spark....It was just because it sat around for so long that it wouldn't go. After about two hours of trying and by using some high octane fuel they got it started. They are giving it a nice service etc and should be all good
