fuel problem
Posted: 03 Nov 2018 08:22 am
So I get no fuel pumping out at my rail (I disconnected it, and nothing came out whilst cranking), I even tested the voltage at the pump, and it was 0v. So I ordered a fuel relay, in the meantime I decided to do a test, I opened up the old relay, stuck a bit of plastic behind the switch part, to make it always make contact, and no fuel would come out of the hose.
The old fuel relay is 0280230005 on my 1986 australian 360glt with b200e. The car cranks fine, and the spark is really strong. The strange thing was, with the fuel rail (on the input side) disconnected, it'd start for a few revolutions if I'd let the car sit for a few hours, over and over again. So I removed the line on the regulator side, and it seems that it was holding pressure, and I think it was even seeping into the engine. It no longer does even this now.
So I suppose my question is, other than the fuses behind the battery, what else does the power go through? If I wanted to just re-run the cables myself, is there anything I'd need to keep in mind?
