Subject:[1985 Digijet] Need help diagnosing no injector power
From:Dan Brideau
Date:Wed, 30 Apr 2003 21:50:27 -0400

Hello,

I have an '85 (WV2XB025XFH081554) that will not run.  It _will_ run on starting fluid for a few moments, but that's all.

There is absolutely no fuel comming from the injectors.  The pump is running, and there is fuel in the lines and hoses.

From what I can gather from my green Vanagon manual, I should see some voltage at the injector connectors durring starting/running.

The manual (and a few archived vanagon.com messages) mention a fluctuating voltage while cranking.

The information is a little vague, when should the connector be "on" and when should it be "off"?

Mine are always "off".

There is a wonderful section on diagnosing "no injector power" in the green manual, but it refers to the air-cooled versions, and components that my engine does not have (namely a dual relay).

Where do I start looking?

Thanks for your guidence,
Dan Brideau
