Hi Everyone,
Wonder if you can help me as I'm going slightly crazy. I have a 98 Jap Imported K11. It used to start fine but got garaged for a couple of years. Now starting into restoration. When I try to start her she coughs and runs for about 10seconds then vibrates alot as the revs drop right down then backfires as she dies.
It had water in the fuel , which killed the pump. It's got a new pump, new pump assembly and new lines inside the pump, new fuel filter and new lines from the filter into the rail. I can get fuel into the rail and out of the return.
Have had all the injectors and rail out, injectors have sat in Injector Cleaner and all operate correctly when activated manually.
Have cleaned the points and rotor and get spark at the plugs which are new and correctly gapped.
The valves are opening and closing as they should with acceptable tolerance, and the chain has good tension.
When priming the pump with the ingnition all the primed fuel goes right out the return line , and with the ignition left on it will keep priming and returning. Not too sure the correct behaviour of the pressure reg in a K11
When putting her into service mode 2 I think it is. The old school diagnosis mode. I get a code 11 (1 slow , 1 fast flash) for the crank angle sensor circuit. I think I may have unplugged the distributor while battery was connected so it may be remembering this code. Have tried unplugging the power and reconnecting and the code stays around not sure if this is memory or an indication of a permeant fault.
As far as I know it has no NATS system due to being a JDM car, I get no NATS light nor does the key give any signal to the key cutter I went too see too get a spare cut. Nor can I find the NATS module. I could be wrong though.
I'm starting too loose the will too live. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have a video of her trying to start to help explain the coughing.
Many thanks
Ben
