September 1, 201510 yr This is probably a stupid question but..... I just about finished the ej22 swap into my loyale everything was going smoothly until my fuel pump stopped working again. the relay clicks when turned to start like it should but the fuel pump is not priming anymore. will i be needing to replace the fuel pump or is it more of a wiring issue? also i do have spark so i don't think its an ecu issue. any help would be greatly appreciated Edited September 1, 201510 yr by Tye
September 1, 201510 yr Author ok so pump is now priming when i have the key turned to start, but when i am cranking the fuel pump is not sending fuel. I am not sure if it should be also it smells very rich when cranking
September 2, 201510 yr Author got the fuel pump to send fuel while cranking and i have spark yet it is not starting. was running fine 2 days ago

September 2, 201510 yr Flooded. Hold gas pedal fully down. Crank. A lot. In bursts, not continously. Like 5 seconds or so.

September 2, 201510 yr It takes quite a while. Scared I'll kill the battery before it starts kind of thing. For my EA82s that is. I've only had it happen 2 or 3 times since 1988. I am not certain about the EJ. And this only applies if everything checks out - spark, fuel, timing belt is correct. I've also used a 1 second shot of carb cleaner into the intake to help test / clear this. It usually takes a number of tries, but gradually, you get a sputter, then a little more, etc....
