1300 first time start up-more problems

[Edd]

After sorting a few other problems it still won't start

-it has fuel injection system now working
-cam and crank timed correctly
-no 1 on dizzy cap lined up with rotor arm
-it has spark when plug placed on exhaust mani
-oil pressure has come up a bit
-plugs gapped to 0.6mm

But still won't start ????

It has a Kent ast2 cam with adjustable venier wheel, could this be where the problem lies ?

It has 15 degrees adjustment either way currently set on zero, is this correct ?

The cap and arm are not genuine, is this going to cause any probs ?

After 4 days of tinkering with it I fed up now

I would suspect if I towed it and bumped it if might start but as it has no brakes I can't

With it being a newly rebuilt engine I'm suspecting this could also be a problem maybe ?

Any help/ideas/experiences ??? I would really appreciate it

If you have spark (and compression!) then it must be fuel related...

Are you getting fuel to the rail?

If so, then it should fire - even if teh timing is miles out it will still try and run!

None of teh above things would stop it running (cam etc)

[Southie]

Is anything on this any use for the timing Edd?

[Edd]

It's got fuel to the rail, took the rail off and fired fuel out of the injectors to check

I've not checked the compression tbh as I would think that is fine, maybe the next thing to check, engine was rebuilt before me putting it in

[Edd]

Possibly Southie, can't read that on my iPhone tho have to wait till I get home at 7pm and use PC

[Southie]

Here are the timing figures for your cam: 36/74 74/36

and inlet timing at full lift: 109 degrees

[Edd]

That will be of some use mate cheers

Going to pick up a compression tester after work but I can't think that is the problem tbh it seems timing related now

[Plug]

is there fuel getting into the chambers? maybe the injectors dont work?

Just an idea

[mowgli]

have you put brand new plugs in it?

or tried easystart down the intake to see if the electrics work?

[Edd]

The injectors work I've fired fuel out of them

I've tried a new set of plugs as well

I havnt tried Easy Start tbh, that going to make much of a difference ?
