Re: [doc] Non Start - Advice Please




I have had similar problems with LJH. Warren a DMC Houston
advises checking the electrical connectors on the cold start valve
and the thermo time switch. The spade connectors can push up into
the plugs and cause intermitant starting.
Another area to check is the fuel tank, The fuel pump may be working
but check its pumping fuel and the filter screen or pick up hose are
not cloged. This causes reduced fuel pressure which is LJH's problem.
When I get chance I will have to do some tank diving.
(oh and check the fuel pump fuse just in case its that)
