    Default Engine problems

    Hello everybody; first of alla sorry about my English, but it´s cause I´m from Chile haha. Well... I installed a 4age 16v blue top on my Suzuki Samurai and I could not make it start. We check for electric problems but there was no problem with that. We also check the fuel pump, sparks, fuel injectors and distribution and we didn´t find any problem with those things. I have some doubts about the vacuum and water connections. When I try to turn on the engine it starts but only for a few seconds and then it dies. I´m really worried about what can be the problem cause I´ve been trying to make the engine start from about four months and nothing happens. I hope you guys can help me.

    Greetings from Chile!

    Sounds like the fuel pump is only working whilst you are turning the starter motor over.

    check fuel pump wiring so it keeps running

    Or it will be injectors, computer terminals etc hooked up to the wrong power

    It's highly unlikely but that can also happen if the IGf wire isn't hooked up to the ECU.
