mk3 escort rs turbo

[SR NATH]

hi everyone i have a mk3 escort rs turbo which has decided it doesnt want to start anymore, i have a checked the following:
fuel pump relay
fuel pipes
fuel pump pressure
ignition spark
plugs,leads,dizzy,rotor arm
and have also taken off the pipe that feeds into the mechanical injector pump from the filter and there is loads of pressure there as it pisses out, but the four pipes that bolt on top of it do not have any fuel coming out at all and as i say it doesnt start. CAN ANYONE HELP ME ? thanks:thumb:

well fix the pissing out of the fuel and then check the injectors are not blocked. did your run the tank on empty fuel. may of sucked up a chunk of crap.

but the four pipes that bolt on top of it do not have any fuel coming out at all basicly answerd your own question sounds like its needing replaced or stripped and cleaned

basicly answerd your own question sounds like its needing replaced or stripped and cleanedfuel metering unit common as ###k on theese

as above really,i also own a s1 too,
have you depressed the flap with your fingers down an inch and tried to start it,is the fuel pressure great enough?
if not the accumalator near the tank may be blocked which is also common

Get a mate to crank it over while ur holding the metering head flap open a tiny bit n i mean tiny it may go then if it does its worn out, as the other lad said common as foook on all turbos and mfi '3is

other option you have is junk the whole mfi system!!!!!!!!!!
go efi,fiesta turbo stuff thats what i did loads better
