stopping the fire 2
OK , so I took the FD off and found that the plunger was indeed stuck. After getting it to move freely again I sprayed WD 40 in the port and then all around the plunger itself and then placed it back in the FD. It seems to move freely up and down so hopefully there will be no more flooding of the exhaust system with raw fuel.
I just need to re-attach all the fuel lines and then I can see if it will run. The spark plugs are all out and should be dry. I am sure I will still get another FD just in case. Thanks for all your help gentlemen. I will let you know how it ends. Miguel |

Less brakes, more gas!

You might want to hand turn the crank 180 deg, let sit for a few, turn 180, let sit.. etc for at least 1 720. This will cycle all the intake valves and let what remaining fuel there is drop into the cyl. It will also get some oil on stuff like rings. Gas cleans that right up and then you have no starting lube on your rings. A low speed rotation wont hurt
 Keep a fire ext. handy on your re-start! -Michael

Start-up.......
Miguel,
To save you from further aggravation and frustration in your CIS troubleshooting, I would like to suggest if Imay that you pull out the injectors (6) and have a similar set-up shown below.  The problem you had before was due to the injectors spraying fuel into the manifolds when the FD plunger got stucked in the barrel. This way, you could inspect all the injectors for spray patterns and look for the drip test. Once you are convinced that the FD is working properly and ready to do the start-up, simply plug the injectors back in. Test the FD plunger several times before putting the injectors back. You want be certain that the plunger is consistently sliding up/down in the barrel everytime you move it. I strongly recommend to hook up a CIS fuel gauge too in doing this kind work. Check your control and system pressure including residual pressure before starting the engine. You could also check the cold and warm control pressure without running the engine by doing a FP test. If you need some clarification, PM me. Keep us posted. Tony |
