    Default bigport 4age problem

    so basically the motor will run for around two to three seconds at high idle and then stall, ive check various plugs and relays etc and it is getting fuel and spark. any help would be appreciated cheers.

    Check if your fuel pump is staying on. Maybe it's running only while the key is in the start position, then cuts out once you let go, giving you only a few seconds of pressure.

    if you open the throttle up will it stall straight away?

    as hen has said, it sounds like the circuit opening relay may not be switching power to the fuel pump once you stop cranking.

    ive seen a few ecu's fail to output the 'FC' earth to keep the relay switched and fuel pump running before, might be this, or has been wired wrong.

    This is happening with my car, but mine stays on for a while. i.e. it idles but only just. Im hoping the new MAP sensor I got for it will fix it as the old one seemed to be stuffed.

    Have you just installed this into your car ? Have you had a 4AGE before ? Has this been running in this car fine before with no problems and this has just come around ?

    Let us know and we might be able to give you a more direct answer.

    In the mean time go to your ECU. Check that the BF pinout on the 10pin plug to the LEFT.

    Check that this has 12v when the key is turned to ON (Ign ON). If it doesn't, temporarly add a wire from BF to B+. Try to start the car again and see what happens.

    Ecu pinouts below.
