No start 164 - Help!
UK 1991 3.0 V6 Lusso Auto
There is fuel to rail, but no injector switching. No HT current at all so therefore no spark Day prior to this car ran like a bag of ****e with tacho whizzing about wildly and hestitancy and surge. Now nothing! RPM Timer/sensor appears fine as is wiring to it that I know can chafe. Any other things to look for? This is driving me mad cos I'm moving in just over a week (100 miles away) and if it can't be fixed I'm gonna have to scrap or give away this car, and u can't even give em away. I'ts a hobby car - I have a Previa for normal day-to-day stuff. If I do lose this car I'm gonna cry - honestly! Be like a death in the family... Help, help. help, please!! Stevie |

An intermittent crank sensor would cause erratic rev-counter ops and
eventually cause the engine to quit altogether. My 156 did this; engine cutting and picking up again with the rev counter bouncing to zero, even when the engine was still being turned over by being in gear and coasting to a standstill. After leaving for several minutes it would restart and run for several miles again. New crank sensor fixed it for cost of 25pounds. Andy M |
