Fuel pump running continuously before starting
Posted: Tue Jul 26, 2011 7:38 am
While I was at home this time I decided to put my Elise back together and get it MOT'd. That all went to plan and the car is now "fit" for the queens highway.
On problem I do have is that the fuel pump doesn't do its normal priming for a few seconds then shut down before I start the car...it just runs continuously for how ever long the ignition is on for.
The chances are this problem is down to me. I did have a few of the conectors out of the ecu plug and there is a chance I never put them back in the right place
I did have a quick check but couldn't see anything obvious.
Is it the ecu that contols the fuel pumps short burst before before it starts? or is it something else?
I have had a good look around for leaks etc.
Cheers,
Kev.
