z|gen Posted March 12, 2006 Report Posted March 12, 2006 hey guys well, went to start my car yesterday, and it didnt, seems like the timing is out. i set the engine to TDC, and lined up the dissy, but its not firing, the engine cranks over fine, but will not fire. anyone got any ideas on what is wrong and how i can fix it? cheers david Quote
Robert Posted March 12, 2006 Report Posted March 12, 2006 Pull one of the spark plugs out and turn the engine over and check for sparkIf no spark theres your problem IF SPARK: Check for compression IF ITS GOT COMPRESSION: Check for fuel. Quote
z|gen Posted March 12, 2006 Author Report Posted March 12, 2006 I'm hoping its not compression :D seems to be enough fuel coming through, just replaced the leads and plugs as well, so will have to wait for the battery to recharge before playing again. cheers for the info, the manual doesnt really tell me anything :D Quote
Valandor Posted March 12, 2006 Report Posted March 12, 2006 my first thought (keep in mind i don't know what model it is) but i would have to say check your points to little or to much of a gap and you will get 0 spark Quote
z|gen Posted March 12, 2006 Author Report Posted March 12, 2006 oh yeah...its on a 4K haha, points, i havent thought of checking them, my mate said it was the timing, so its just a process of elimination i guess Quote
