R50/53 No fuel
No fuel
I have a late 2003 r50 not getting fuel checked the relay and it's good power to fuel pump good, new fuel pump and filter, no fuel to rail. I have spark what else could I check? Will the crank sensor still produce spark with no fuel? I'm at a loss and could use suggestions. Thanks
Ok filter is in correct still no fuel to rail. I have checked power through the fuel shut off and it does I have power through the fuel relay and to the fuel pump what other sensors can I check to see if the are bad and not letting the fuel pump turn on
There's a Schrader valve (like on an inner tube) located at the end of the fuel rail (underneath the back of the supercharger). Have someone crank the car while holding a rag against that valve (push the needle in with a screwdriver) and see if you have fuel pressure. If you do, it will squirt out pretty quickly. If there is no spray, then you're not getting fuel to the rail. With the bottom of your back seat out, can you hear the fuel pump prime when turning your ignition to position 1? If not, your fuel pump is not operational. I'm still betting that since you changed the filter, the top fuel filter housing is not fully seated. I did exactly that on my R53 (took it out and put it back it three times thinking I had it seated) before discovering that I just wasn't installing the top correctly. As soon as I had it fully in position, it started right up.
