Can't start car!

[hcca]

I don't think that's it as the injectors are disconnected and there's still fuel flowing through one of them. As soon as the fuel pump operates, the injector sprays fuel everywhere. There is fuel sitting in the bottom of the plenum under the throttle butterfly.

Ok.. that would appear to be the problem.. disconnected the fuel pump and it actually ran for a second or two before it used all the fuel sitting in the plenum and died.. yay :) Anyone want to sell me an injector? :)

What sort of injector you after? i would recommend any jap dismantler as they would have a huge amount of toyota injectors laying around

[hcca]

This is my other Starion - not the 2JZ one.. so i'm just after a stocker injector :)

Unfortunately it's going to be a while longer before the 2JZ Starion does something useful :)

you should just get the 2jz running, that way you can tow the other staz

[hcca]

Haha.. good idea :) Only problem is that I need a few thousand dollars more to get the engine running in the other car - turbo manifold and exhaust being 2 major expensive items. Looking at getting them done quite soon though.

If you get an injector from the Jap wreckers ensure it has the same flow rate at max. I got a couple a few years back and they were only 3/4 of the Ausy JA injectors when fully open

I have a spare inlet manifold with 2 injectors in it?

[hcca]

Cam is helping me out with the injectors.. thanks though :)

[Camotec]

Heh thats cool

After finding that one , we dumped the oil in the sump only to find it full of fuel too !!!

which reminds me , when you get it going, drain the sump and refill it with fresh oil, failure to do that, your turbo will cook....

[hcca]

Got it going finally :)

Now I just have to fix the power steering leak (leaking onto pulley - can't see anything obvious!), radiator leak and exhaust leak (damn that downpipe>exhaust fitting!), numerous electrical problems.. etc :)

Thanks guys.
