tmathis151 Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 I have a guy working on my car and he told me the other day I need a ECI for my car. He told me that is the one piece that is keeping the injectors from operating correctly because he has checked all the wiring and the fuel pump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slowquest Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 where you at? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmathis151 Posted April 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 Im in South Carolina. Yeah there is spark at the plugs and the fuel pump is working good. the reason it wont run is it isnt getting gas. if you pour gas into the throttle body it runs good but you have to pour gas in it to keep it running.

LEPORE Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 are you getting fuel to the injectors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmathis151 Posted April 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 When we checked it we took of the return line and fuel seems to be going to the injectors its just like they are not working. The guy working on it said if it isn't the ECI its the main wiring harness. He says that the wiring harness is 500 bucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEPORE Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 is there power to the injectors with key on and cranking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vbrad511 Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 Go to Autozone and use their loaner program to get a noid light to test that you're getting signal to the injectors. If so, pull them out anyway and clean all the contacts on them. It's not impossible to have a bad ECU in these cars, but it's VERY uncommon. If you're not getting signal, replace the injector clips (probably needs them anyway....all of them do). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
