Re: 96 850 GLT Cannot get fuel to the rail

Thanks folks,
The filter is new. The new fuel pump is the entire assembly. Those two fuel lines were in one position, I don't think I could reverse them even if I tried. Maybe the pump is a mirror image? It is aftermarket. I did have raw gas in the intake, and the engine was fuel hydrolocked.

Fuel ...

96 850 GLT Cannot get fuel to the rail

Wow, this might just be the straw...

New fuel pump, new coolant temp sensor, swapped out a couple of fuel relays, jump the relay;
it doesn't matter. I get no fuel at the rail.
Just tossed a couple gallons in for laughs...

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. This car has become a nightmare.

96 850 GLT Broken hose at ???

In the front of my naturally aspirated 850 engine, is a device with a hose going to the throttle body and the other end goes to the intake. It is big like a heater hose but has the smell of fuel, I suspect egr something? It has an electrical connector and looks to deal with exhaust gases?

In any ...

Re: 96 850 GLT Should I be able to turn over a hydro-lo

No, I have no idea where all the fuel came from, I assumed it was from leaving the paper clip shorting the fuel pump relay too long, I did do that for 10 minutes.

Yes, the engine was gas hydro-locked! Especially one cylinder, the one all the way on the passenger side. I wonder if that injector is ...

Re: 96 850 GLT Should I be able to turn over a hydro-lo

I understand the process but it seems a bit dangerous, any tips on how to avoid a fire? Gas is already everywhere...

96 850 GLT Should I be able to turn over a hydro-locked

I am trying to diagnose a starter that hits hard with the solonoid yet fails to crank the engine. I discovered the intake is full of gas, which I assume means the engine cylinders are as well?

I put the socket on the crankshaft bolt and it sure turns over with enough force, not too much, is it ...
