Starting

[fozzy72]

Hello Well this is my problem well about a week now my car hasnt started... Well my car was running just fine then it ran out of gas... Well i got some gas and went to prime my car it wouldnt start the engine kicks over and will slightly start with the gas i try priming with but wont stay on... I have even tried the way of turning on key for 10 seconds then try kicking it over but nothin happens... I tried going under neath and taking off my fuel filter I thaught maybe it was durty but still it wont start... Has this happend to enyone else?

I would think its a clogged fuel line somewhere. It could be multiple clogged injectors. Era you getting fuel through the injectors? You didn?t say how you primed it, but I can tell you this our manifolds arent designed to flow fuel. If you are just pouring a little in through the front it probably isnt getting much at all to the cylinders and for sure not enough to each cylinder to actually run.

Well you have some good knowledge there and i will check that.... How would you prime the lines? I was putting gas in threw the front.... I would check to see if there was eny pressure coming in threw the front valve kind of looks like a air valve its located were the both lines run into the top of the manifold... The valve is located in the middle... Some one told me that it might be clogged at the fuel pump in side the tank... Do you have eny ideas ? Maybe should i take the lines off and send air thew them ? I dont know...

You can turn on the key whit a COLD engine and press on that schrader valve (one that looks like an air valve) on top of the manifold and see if fuel comes out. Becareful as fuel can come out with alot of pressure. Becareful of your eyes. A pressure guage would be better if you can get ahold of one.
