help guys car wants to start but doesnt.


Recommended Posts

V6 sti wagon lost throttle and finally stalled. Have checked fuel there's pressure and fuel at the motor and hav checked all the lines and theres no pipes off. It didnt through a code so I have no clue as to what to look for. Anyone had this happen? Ideas guys?

Cheers

Cool. Be good to put the factory sock onto the new pump though.

It seems to only do it every time it gets to just under half a tank. It's still doing it. I open it all up last nite and everything seems to b exactly how the stock pump was but there was just under half in the side with the pump and the other side of the tank there was about half so I'm wondering if it's not transferring into the drivers side of the tank for some reason..maybe the jet pump any other ideas? It's not the sock..

Now I'm stuck down town trying to get it to start and I've put more fuel in..either not transferring or air in the lines..

So fuel pump priming when you turn the ignition on?

Stab in the dark but it could be the fuel pump relay? give it a wiggle check connections etc.

You dont have any kind of immobilizer do you?

Sorry, So does the pump prime when you turn the key on? If so then it’s not any of this and im just wasting your time haha.

If you get your head far enough down in the foot well and look behind where the fuse board would be and up you should see a green and brown relay, green one is fuel pump i believe and that’s the one you checked yea?

Immobilizer could have something to do with it if it has fuel pump cut but i really have no idea sorry mate

Yup it primes when I turn the key. Yup that's the relay I checked. I've got the pump etc out at the moment. Nah my immobiliser isn't that flash.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
