Hi all,
Just recently finished a manual conversion after having car layed up for around 10 months. Baclground: Auto gearbox died on me just after filling at petrol station so was on a full tank of fuel. Anyways I started it up after putting everything back together on jack stands, car started first time beautifully, tested all the gears everything perfect. Took the car off the stands drove it around the block, also no problems, was idling ok too. Brought back to do some other things. When I went to start it again, wouldn't crank. Figured it might be the battery, so used the jump starter, car started fine but after disconnecting the jumper leads was idling very low and sort of sputtering. Figured battery was gone since its old and I had charged it up over the 8 months, so when out bought new battery and installed it. Then car would crank but not start, as if it was fuel starved. Thought might be the fuel was stale. So hand pumped it out from the fuel pump location under the back seat. Tank looked completely empty but gauge was still showing 1/4 full, figure it might be just problem with gauge? Filled her up with fresh 98, car is doing the same thing still cranking but not turning over. Have done error code checking of ECU with evoscan, no specific codes popping up, i think it says something like Trouble Codes Present, have to check again. No idea what to try next, anyone got any ideas?
