sr20 no start. Not sure what the problem is. - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Goose · 10-27-2008, 11:03 AM

I've got an s13 coupe with a blacktop sr20 in it. Car has been running fine until last night it wouldn't start. Cranked it for a while and tried a few different things and no dice. Pulled the fuel pump fuse and cranked it just in case it was flooded and it started right up, put the fuse back in and it drove normal all the way home. Now it wont start unless you pull the fuel pump fuse and crank it a few times then replace the fuse and it runs. I don't want to drive it until I know what the problem is and I'm stumped. Thanks for your help!

Quick info about car:

fmic
stock t25
3 inch turbo back
koyo radiator
hks turbo timer

japslapsilvia · 10-28-2008, 03:28 PM

maybe your injectors are leaking alittle bit causing u excess fuel in the combustion chamber??? take ur fuel rail out and turn the key to see if fuel is leaking past the o-rings.

Bahdra, YOU HAVE A BAD MAF. 100% Garaunteed.

OP, You need to make sure an injector isn't stuck/leaking. You need to check your temp sensors(not gauge ones).
