75 LJet will not fire, finishing restoration Options

[malcolm2]

Ok I think I am good on the seat belt relay. YLW and YLW/red are spliced. And I have checked for continuity all the way from the starter to the key on that wire.

I have spark, points checked too.

I have fuel pressure, about 40 psi, checked between p-side fuel rail and cold start valve.

Starter works fine

oil pressure builds, light goes out on the dash

Engine timing is still at rebuild setting...0 TDC.

Re-built FI & Ignition & Alt harnesses

I did have trouble with the key switch, so the steering wheel is out, levers are not connected and I turn a screw driver on the end of the key connector to fire the starter, should not be an issue, correct?

I got the L-jet trouble shooting "no start" pages to try tomorrow.

Any other ideas? I am baffled. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Hey Clark, Tim, I have only loosely followed this thread, sounds like you are going through things, with some success.

Were the injectors already 'rebuilt' and sat for awhile? If so they may be plugged...the chemcial they use to clean them can harden-up and cause them to not flow. You may be able to free them up by blipping them with a 9V battery a few times, and I would start by soaking their tips in something to help free them up - brake cleaner or acetone maybe?

To get the one L-jet car I had to run, I used one of the manuals on my site - there is a methodical approach to check all the components and systems, might help you too.

I will try to watch this thread, but if you need me, email me.
