Starts but does not run....
If the engine starts but then fades and dies within seconds (faster if you
try and rev it), you probably don't have any power to the main injectors. It will be firing up on the start injector, but this only supplies fuel while the engine is cranking. As soon as you let go the key, the injector closes and the engine fades and dies as the fuel in the manifold is consumed. Check that you have power to the main injectors when the ignition is "ON". Supply comes from the dashboard loom, and is one of the larger pins in the big loom connector plug at the rear of the engine on the firewall. If no power, you can check that the engine will run by making a temporary connection to put 12 volts direct from the battery on to the engine side of the opened loom connector. Find the right pin first If the engine starts and runs OK, you most likely have a problem with a relay or bad connection in the injector power supply wiring circuit. Hope this helps Cheers... jondee86 The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
