It wont start!

(1/5) > >>

Wolfie_:
My '88 rrc wont start! I have spark but the fuel pump was'nt  working so have traced  the fault right back to the fuse so far,no power to the fuse,havent traced it any further yet but i bypassed the fuse and put a live to the battery so i have fuel, I have changed everything I can possible think of to do with the engine running, relays ecu airflow meter, ignition switch,cold start sensor etc, but al to availe,still wont start and still no power to the fuse.While im turning it over sometimes it will fire and at one point even manage to get it to sound as if it was going to run but as soon as i let go of the key nothing.Im going to try and trace power fault right back to the source but in the meantime can Anyone shed any light on the problem?

Please help

P.S. I threatened it with the hammer,I offered it nice new shiney bits, Ive even threatened to burn it and none of that worked either

Thrasher:
Coil giving weak spark.......

Wolfie_:
yeah thought that as well but I changed that aswell and getting a good spark :?
cheers though

Thrasher:
The pump won't fire in EFI (I think) if the spark is not good enough. Check the voltage across the pump fuse. Secondly, check the ignition amp. If you have fuel, air and spark the only other thing I can think of is timing way way out, bad rotor, knackered dizzy cap, dodgy coil lead...the list goes on ;-)

I dont have any power at the fuse at all, checked/replaced all the rest, am at the moment thinking that what ever is causing no power to the fuse is causing it not to start :?

Ignition amp, is that the box attached under the airflow meter? if so I've change that as well

cheers
