Hello , As above I have rebuilt the top end on my 1300 B3 injected engine as I bought it cheap with low milage and a blown head gasket .. I've rebuilt the whole lot of it back to fresh clean , new parts everywhere including new clutch and seals and such !
Now engine box all back in a week ago so attempted to start it and it fired a little erratic so played with all the timing ,checked compresion , on each cylinder all good , couple of leaks around the manifold which I fixed , then proceeded to start again ..
Fired up nicely idling quiet good let it run for half hour , then turned on and off through the rest of the day no worries ... Next day I attempted to start again and no go , checked all the plugs for spark number 1 cylinder wasn't firing traced that back to distributor cap replaced distributor.. It fired on one rotation then just free spun not firing...
I'm feeling it's back to the fuel injector system , i note there is pressure from the filter to manifold as I unscrewed the hose clamp and it squirted out the hose with pressure and quickly tightened back up .. All I can think is to check injectors and leads to them ! Or can some tell me where in the circuit system relates to injectors firing
Any help from knowledgeable Festiva Injection owners or former or anyone would be much appreciated ..
Cheers
Fred
