so been trying to remove battery and let it reset the ecu with no luck,
tried keeping it going with starter fluid no luck,
it almost is like it cuts igniton but i dont really know.
 im not a mechanical genius so maybe u guys have any suggestions on some tests or maybe even an solution

Starting with easy/cheap/no tools required:


Has it had any work done before the fault?


Are there any extra lights on the dash?


Is the fuel rail full of pressurised fuel when the engine stalls?




Does the fuel pump sound any different?


Next:


Use a code reader. for stored codes.


Use a code reader for the live data from crank/cam/MAF/throttle sensors


Check the fuel pump relay is working properly; swapping it with one of the others will do

[Linus]

nope no work before this

there sometimes where service light when starting again after its been driven for awhile

i will add that to my check list

fuel pump sound healty but maybe need to take a closer look at that aswell

probally have to go get a code reader anyways its good to have


its been sitting for 2-3 months becuase i got a new car but my girl is in need for a car so wanna get it running again,

is there a good way to check for pressure in the rail? 

Thx For quick answer

its been sitting for 2-3 months because i got a new car but my girl is in need for a car so wanna get it running again,

How much fuel is in it? If it wasn't much then drain what's left and replace with fresh. Modern fuel does not stay usable for long


There's a valve on the fuel rail for testing the pressure.

[Linus]

Yes will do that

Thx for the advice probally write here again if i have more issues,


Thx Alot
 Have a great day
