I got the fuel tank buttoned up. I tested the new fuel pump yellow connector from the wire harness with at light and it turns on when the ignition key is on and the little flap inside the air filter cover/MAF is pushed, which also activates the relay which I can hear. When I put my ear near the fuel tank filler hose I can hear it pump.
I got the engine to fire, but a paragraph of adjectives to would not completely express my disappointment.
Number 1 cylinder is not firing. The spark plug looks wet, I think with gas. At this point I don’t know why it wouldn’t fire.
I’ve tried two completely different sets of spark plugs, spark plug wires, and cap and rotor.
Do the fuel injector connectors from the wire harness have to be in a specific sequence attached to each injector? If by chance I got cylinder number one injector connector switched with cylinder number 2 injector, would that cause one cylinder not fire?
I am very concerned it may be mechanical… like too low of compression?... or something is wrong with the valves?.
I have double checked the valve lash.
If there is any good news about this, it’s that there are no leaks any where. The temp gauge goes to normal and I see oil pressure on the gauge.
I’m not sure where to start except to remove the throttle body (Oh my gawd!!) to get to the injector connectors and injectors?
I need valium drip right now!
Any ideas?
Thanks,
