3ye wont start

Post by J_Dub »

my surf wont start. 3ye
turns over fine but wont fire, just started doing this this morning, where do i find the fuel filter on these things? is it the canister looking thing to the right of the intake against the firewall?? im thinking its a fuel thing or coil, which is a prick cause its electronic timing.
Any ideas anyone??

to make matters worse, the mrs car broke down on the way home from trying to get my car going, same symptoms, now thats stuck on the side of the road..

awesome start to the weekend, 1 week out from xmas, xmas shopping to do, a cash job to finish, and no vehicle to do anything phuck :evil:

Is it coughing and farting at all?
Have they got a crank angle sensor?

internal coil setup which i thought were spose to be bulletproof..
thats all i can think of, thought it would show signs of failing first though rather than just dieing
