Won't fire when cranking
Hi Guys,
Hope someone can help with this. My 83 F250 just stopped when pulling out of the driveway. It acted like I just turned off the key. I have been reading some of the threads and have tried most of the suggestions. I was not getting any fuel out of the injector lines when cranking the engine. I am getting fuel from the line going to IJ pump. I had a used pump and put it on and I am now getting a small amount of fuel from the IJ lines. Just a dribble. My batteries show good when tested but they are 4 years old and I read to replace them. The engine seems to crank well enough for 10 to 20 second intervals. It will not fire with ether or wd 40. Can you tell me how much fuel should be coming out of the IJ line if only one is opened. I did replace rubber hose at the manual pump.
Thanks for any help

hmmm, i'll sleep on this..... but i know with the engine running there should be a good amount of fuel spewing when you crack the line loose...
my IDI does this sometimes ONLY on cold starts... it will fire up then die... crack about 15 seconds and it fires... i know if has a pin hole somewhere in one of the hard lines though...just havent fixed it

does the pump have power to it? front plug on the pump should have power to it to run. wun a wire from + battery to front prong on pump. this should turn on pump. remove wire to shut down.
these trucks are full of stupid fusible links. i had one burn up for my fuel heater. truck just shut off.
