Hello everyone, I have a few questions and also just want to voice my plan to get my SC running again to y'all to see if I am on the right track.
I have a 1978 SC with a 82 motor in it.
I have searched and searched on this and have many tabs open on my browser right now, I am having issues with my 911 starting AFTER it has been running. It all started about 3 weeks ago when I ran it low on fuel (Doh!). I got in it the next morning and it would not fire. I figured a clogged fuel filter or injectors. The car sat for about a week before I decided to give it another shot... It fired right up and ran normal for about two days. I was leaving class one night and it fired yet died right away (less than two seconds) and would not fire again. I got the car towed home and then it sat for another week or so.
About a week later I replaced my fuel filter and it fired up. After driving around for about 30 mins I shut it off and started to work on my land cruiser. When I got back in it to go home it did the same thing as before... tried to fire yet died and would not do anything but turn over. So I pulled the fuel pump relay and then bumped the car over to try and displace any fuel that might have been in my motor... IT FIRED up and RAN! , yet with no relay the fuel pump wasn't running so once all the extra fuel was burn it died (after about 5 seconds) . I replaced the relay and tried to fire it again and it would not start. -- Was this just a fluke incident?
I hear the fuel pump and the CIS is making its sound. The main injectors are wet with fuel(could I be running to lean?), and I have spark.
From what I have read I think I might have one of more of these issues... A bad fuel accumulator (reverse vapor lock?) , faulty cold start injector (flooding my motor after it is turned off?), or my CIS needs for TLC.
What do you guys think I should do first?
Thank you.
Ps, Here are some links that have given me some ideas on what possibly might be wrong.
