Car almost done!

[kingersman]

the dub almost lives!

ok after many hours of putting the turbo on and getting everything hooked up we found the battery was dead.

so got another battery and tried to start, first time wasn't to bad almost started. Then the second got worse and then on the third it was jamming so we stopped. Could moister, oil or something alike by the spark plugs stop it from turning over?

how many times had you tried to start it, you may have fowled (sp?) the plugs, may just need whipping out and cleaning/drying.

3 or 4 times, ok so clean the plugs?

[dubbedup]

yep...

(or tow start it...i have done this on occasion- others on here wont like this method tho.)

3 or 4 times may not be enough to fowl them, but it wont hurt to pull the out and see as it easy to do. see if there dripping with petrol.

mine i was able to shake petrol out of them lol.

otherwise check all you connections

[kingersman]

if they really dirty or anything might pay to take them all out lol

[kamineko]

ah, caught up with you this arvo at the wreckers

double check everything - if it was starting before you pulled it apart and its not now..

if its not turning after 3/4 attempts i'd say the 2nd battery is flat also?

[dubbedup]

TD05?

[kingersman]

na battery is fine. its jamming on something?

talked to nick at apet he said could be any liquid or something in there making it hydraulic?

which i think it means jam and stop it from flowing?

yes td05

[kamineko]

remove the sparkplugs and pull off the injector plugs, it should turn over

[dubbedup]

mmm...you shouldnt be able to hydralic anything from swapping a turbo?

lucky ya changed that!

[kingersman]

na the plugs were off ages ago and could have collected moisture in there? they were off for like a week.

yeah was told to take out the spark plugs and try and turn over

[kingersman]

DOUBLE POST!

OK well I've taken all the plugs out, yes all of them!

top left hand cylinder(i call it #1 don't know if its true) just poured out with petrol.

would this be normal seen as i tried to start it and wouldn't ignite?

and do i just unplug the injectors and just try and turn it over?
