As some of you may be aware ive been rebuilding my rev2 mr2. Today i managed to get the car to start but now have some problems.
1. When i start the car it fires up then idles up and down a bit. It then cuts out, not splutters off or dies it';s more like its turning itself off. If i try to hold the revs on it still cuts itself out. Not sure what this could be?
2. The plugs are pretty black, they werent when i put them in but are now. Im assuming all the times cranking before firing drew loads of fuel and stuff into the engine so this should clear once the engine has run a bit. Correct me if i am wrong though.
(I dont think its relevant, but i replaced the fuel pump with a walboro, i assume this is fine as i really dont want to have to change it again!)

Re: [Mk2] [NA] Starting problems
When cranking the car runs the fuel pump flat out. Once it's started it goes to normal operation. Sounds like your normal operation isn't working!
Have you done anything with the wiring, aside from fitting a larger fuel pump?

Nope all the wiring is the same, not touched that.
It doesnt seem like its the fuel, its more like the key is being turned off. it doesnt splutter at all or cut out slowly, it is very sudden.

Re: [Mk2] [NA] Starting problems
What are you doing for management then? Rev3 conversion? Standalone?

Re: [Mk2] [NA] Starting problems
It is a mk2 shell that has had all of the bits swapped to rev3 na. Everything is standard, only thing that is different is the fuel pump is aftermarket. But i have tested this and it is supplying fuel.
