I just rebuilt my K8 (spun a rod bearing) - what a nightmare! Anyway, I've got everything together and the car turns over, but it won't fart or anything. Here are the troubleshooting steps I have taken so far:
*Checked for spark - OK on all cylinders
*Poured a little gas in #2 & #3 cylinders - engine farted a couple of times
* Checked for fuel flow by disconnecting fuel lines from rails - the one closest to the bumper pumps gas when the engine is turned over. The one closest to the firewall (return?) does not.
*Checked firing order. I put the plug wires back on like I took them off. However, the Chiltons manual I have says a different firing order, and the dity cap has even a third firing order molded into it. Since I know it ran the way I had it, I put them back on that way.
*Pulled out a plug and sniffed for gas - none. Sniffed the exhaust pipe for gas - none. I have cranked on this thing for at least 5 minutes combined time. If it was spraying gas, I would smell it.
OK, so based on the above I feel like the injectors are not firing fuel into the cylinders. When I pull the injector relay and replace it, I hear a clicking close to the injector relay. The same when I pull the injector fuse in the engine bay and replace it. Does anyone have any experience with this? I need this car tonight, so fast answers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
