Re: 1996 850 Has spark, compression, fuel, won't start

Thanks. I'll look into that. Shame to waste all the coin I spent on all the new components though....
And they are installed, so can't send them back.

Re: 1996 850 Has spark, compression, fuel, won't start

Tried that. None of the links that I could find are functioning, they were all dead. I have all brand new components in the system, but can't tell if the air pump is actually turning on. Just have not had the opportunity to investigate further, have work to do on another vehicle right now.

Re: 1996 850 Has spark, compression, fuel, won't start

No idea if the coil actually fried, or just died. But it's been running fine since a replacement was installed. Now I just need to solve the secondary air pump engine code. Replaced all the components, but still not functioning correctly. Not sure if the vacuum activated solenoid is functioning corr...

1996 850 Has spark, compression, fuel, won't start

Ok, further update. No new check engine codes, just the secondary air pump. Changed fuel pump relay. No start. Changed fuel system relay. No start. Changed Cam position sensor. No start. Changed TPS - old one full of water? No start. Changed coil. Started right up and idling fine in the driveway. We...

Re: 1996 850 Has spark, compression, fuel, won't start

I have not checked for no spark yet, had to get the car home first. Tomorrow after work. I have not replaced any sensors yet, having spark was an indication all the sensors were functioning. Hoping that when it died it threw a code that will give me a direction to go in.

Re: 1996 850 Has spark, compression, fuel, won't start

So here's the current status: I let the car sit for a week with the plugs out of while I was working on my wife's car. Put the plugs back in and it started right up, smoking like crazy from all the oil I put in the cylinders (lawnmower starting syndrome). Took it for a ride down the street to clear ...

1996 850 Has spark, compression, fuel, won't start

Getting about 40psi fuel pressure, have not calibrated the gage with a known pressure, so I'm saying it's ok. Spark is yellow/blue. Hard to tell in bright daylight. No alarm in the car that I can find. This is what I brought home from the salvage yard yesterday, where do I start? Sorry, forgot to tu...

Re: 1996 850 Has spark, compression, fuel, won't start

Sometimes. How would I test that?
The threads that I have looked at indicate if that fails I should have more than 40-45 psi at the fuel rail.

Re: 1996 850 Has spark, compression, fuel, won't start

Yes, we did check the pressure while cranking. Dropped a little, but not a huge amount. I'm beginning to think that the cam sensor failed. All the other threads seem to indicated that in order for the code to show up, the car needs to be running, and this one is not. I do have a couple of salvage ya...

Re: 1996 850 Has spark, compression, fuel, won't start

Dist cap has not been moved.
It was running fine, and now has a no start condition.
