Spiky 37 Posted May 11, 2008 ok, almost finished Rossi's car now, but i'm lost as to what the big brown wire is for as my conversion didn't have one, but mine was a GTI6 engine and loom, where as this one is a VTS engine and loom It's quite thick, like the Fuel pump but with no numbers on it reason i ask is the car dont start, i do have a switched live to the pin on the double relay but the fuel pump isn't priming. anyone?

gti-si 0 Posted May 11, 2008 Its the permanant live on mine Spiky, the relay won't send the feed to the pump until it has that, or have you already wired the perm in? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spiky 37 Posted May 11, 2008 i need to find why it dont start now.lol though petrol gauge dont move much, and the fuel pump doesn't sound good. whether thats low in fuel or just old age, will add some fuel tomorrow and try Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gti-si 0 Posted May 11, 2008 mate, if you can, take a video of trying to start it, i'll send mine...just want to raise my concerns about a major mechnical flaw on mine haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spiky 37 Posted May 11, 2008 can you do video calling? the battery is quite low now, so not going to be able to get much Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shooter mcgavin 37 Posted May 11, 2008 might be worth checking the fuel lines mate i had the feed and return the wrong way aroud and the pump sounded guff and the engine would't fire or am i the only stupid (cough) to do this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spiky 37 Posted May 11, 2008 was that for me? although the fuel lines look a bit dodgy, and run on the ex manifold, it looks. ok will have another look tomorrow, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smighall 1 Posted May 11, 2008 (edited) From the pics in the other thread the fuel lines look the correct way round. Edited May 11, 2008 by smighall Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spiky 37 Posted May 11, 2008 yeah, checked them earlier., thanks for the confirmation though it's either lack of fuel (in tank) or fuel pump, as i can here it fill around the fuel rail, but the pump sounds very weird. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
