I looked long and hard at
@gavinh 's B28E KJet thread (
https://ozvolvo.org/discussion/5903/b28e-kjet/p1 )and was very tempted to hijack it but my problem seems to be slightly different.
I pulled the 262 out of mothballs and have decided to get it on the road. I estimate it has been sitting for approx an eternity. I, as Gav did, started with the basics. I drained and flushed the fuel tank and lines, replaced both fuel pumps and the filter and now have fuel at the injectors. I have not yet replaced the cap, rotor, leads or plugs but they all look to be in good shape and the leads test ok. I seem to have reasonable spark at the plugs.
I have not been able to get it to start, it coughs and tries to fire but will not run.
Please bear in mind I am a genuine Kjet noob.
Does the main pump run the whole time the engine is cranking and/or running? While the tank pump does this I cannot get the main pump to run without bringing it at the fuse. I assume my pump relay may be faulty, if this is the case I can replace it easy enough.
With both pumps running (bridged at the fuse), engine off and injector 1 pulled out and laying across the rocker cover it is spraying fuel. I assume it shouldn't be... before rushing in and blaming injectors I wanted to make sure that the pump is intended to run the whole time, my other thought is that I may have excessive fuel pressure, perhaps from a faulty regulator or blocked return line. I have not yet tested it.
I have not looked into the fuel distributor/regulator, have never had one apart. Can something go wrong in there that causes the injectors to spray despite there being no airflow?
Looking for direction at the moment.
