Question

My car is not starting, can you help identify the issue?

Answer 1

either you did not install the fuel pump right check all your connections and lines, check for kinks in the fuel lines etc. or there is a fuel filter in the line that needs to be replaced. sounds like the fuel is not get up to the carb. also remove and replace the gas cap to release any vapor lock.

Answer 2

fuel line problem, or fuel injector problem, or you over clamped the pump

Answer 3

what made you put a fuel pump in?

Answer 4

check your idle-fuel to air ratio. Stuck choke plate?

Answer 5

Either you have dirt in the fuel lines or filter or you have air bubbles in the lines. crack the line, take an airline and blow the gas line out.... til you hear air bubbles in the tank. if that doesnt work at least you know its not that, do you have spark? if you dont, the pick up in the distributor could be bad. Main question from hubby here is Do you have any spark at all?

Answer 6

If it's a mechanical fuel pump I would say you have the lift arm around the back of the cam so the pump will not operate. Jules, Automotive lecturer. Australia
