Re: No start. Fuel system. Input please. 700 87

Lawrence,

My wife had the same thing happen. Driving along and engine quit and coasted into a parking lot. Very similar characterists. You did not specify the engine type. But read on.

If the pump runs the car should start. With my wifes car ( 89 Turbo 760) it turned out to be the Hall sensor in the distributor. In the 89 Turbo the distributor is mounted on the back of the engine off of the cam. The Hall sensor tells the ECU when to fire the fuel injectors. When these go bad the injectors will not send fuel into the manifold. These can be change out with some work. Parts cost about $65 and time to drill out the mounting rivets, or you need to get another distributor which is big bucks.
