New scenario 930 turbo problem no start I am getting tired already!

I put some gas into the valve body and of course the car starts up. But you would think that when it runs out of gas the car would die. But NO the car idles alittle funny and runs O.K. when I punch it. Then when I turn off the car, and start it again she just turns over. Like no fuel.,.. I had her running for 10 minutes before I turned her off... I am about to send her to the mechanic... FRUSTRATING!!! does anyone have any idea????? Please help last and final try...

It could be numerous things...bad fuel pump( 930's have two), stuck piston in the fuel distributor, clogged fuel filter, etc. What have you attempted to do to fix it?

I changed the fuel filter only but I did not bleed ? Could that be the problem? How do you test the 2 fuel pumps? I was thingking it could be the cold start valve?? Too many guessing games... What would you check first? ALOHA

Cold start valve in Hawaii? You got to be joking. Maybe in Minnesota in the dead of winter but Hawaii?

I would check the system pressure with a cis gauge set.

My WAG (Wild A$$ Guess) a blown airbox.

Try bleeding the injectors first. With the key on push down on the air flapper in the airbox. Do that untill the injectors squeal.

I'm by no means an expert but the way you describe your problem leads me to the air meter contact (the blue plug on the back of the air meter). The air meter contact is directly responsible for providing the ground path to the boost/air meter relay which in turn provides the ground to the fuel pump relays. If misadjusted, it's possible that the limited air flow during cranking isn't enough to create the ground circuit to the relays. Once the engine is started (by pouring gas into the valve body) and air flow increases the misudjustment is overcome and the ground cicuit is made. A simple test for that whole circuit is to ground pin 30 on the boost/air meter relay and see if the car starts.

Problem solved! When I changed the cap and rotor I started the #1 plug wire to the right of the notch Instead of the left. So she was running to far avanced (sort-of). After all that, it was something small!

ALOHA

Thanks for all the help
