I solved the fuel pump issue. It turns out that it was a software thing. The logic in the lfuel pump circuit is the same as D-jet. If the ECU doesn't see the engine crank it shuts off the fuel pump and that was what was happenning. MS lets you set a cranking speed and mine was set too high so the ECU shut the pump down thinking that the engine was not cranking. As soon as I entered an appropriate RPM everthing worked.
The good news is that this proves that the ECU is seeing a tach signal from the Ford ignition module so the crank sensor is working and the module is alive. It may run yet. This afternoon I'll adjust the fuel pressure and work on spark. Dave |
