viceversa Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 I know this is one of the most common, and probably difficult problems. This 92 Loyale will not start - it turns over good, but doesn't start. This makes me think all the electrical stuff is OK like battery alternator and starter. Where do I go from here? Remove a spark plug and smell for fuel? An ignition problem - what could be the typical things to check for? It is SPFI, so could it be a bad injector? Fuel regulator? Bad computer maybe?

calebz Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 Check for gas spark and compression Make sure the rotor is spinning. Check for error codes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subieman Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 Make sure the rotor is spinning. Yeah, check that timing belt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallyruss Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 get a spark tester from your local parts store to test spark. or just set the coil wire near a good ground(away from fuel) and look for a nice BLUE spark. orange is no good. if you haver this your belts are still in good shape most likely as well as the coil, driver ect. I assume its TBI or should I say SPFI:rolleyes: if so you can look at the injector while cranking and see if it squirts. or give it a squirt of carb spray your self and see if it kicks over. if it does you need fuel. check the fuel pump to see if its evin running.

viceversa Posted May 22, 2004 Author Share Posted May 22, 2004 Update ... Found out (with help) that it was getting no gas. The fuel pump was not working. Saw that the wire leading to the fuel pump was chewed up by some critters. Needs to be connected together and covered with tape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
