Well come on tell us what simple thing it was that was causing it because it normally something very easy that everyone forgots about until you spend hours working on it.

was an extra switch that cuts all power. so it has been by passed at the moment.

Just so you don't look stupid kaney. We did know about the switch it was a quite blatent big red plastic key. but didn't realise that is had a fault in it. gave power to the fans and dash but then cut out when you put any decent current through it.

I will be at your place by 5.30 to give you a tow :wink:

kaney · Post by **kaney** » Wed Oct 31, 2007 8:18 pm

well all went well on the way up. climbs really well. then got to top and wouldnt idle and struggled to run as if was running out of fuel- got to bottom and presumed it was the fuel pick up but when we got to the flat at the bottom it still wouldnt idle then by the time we got home it wouldnt start or run at all really, so either we chewed up 30 dollars worth of gas or the fuel filter blocked....or i got no idea

Ive had a similar problem with my 7mge check the earth on coil and ignitor as it feeds power to injectors

Petemcc · Post by **Petemcc** » Wed Oct 31, 2007 9:11 pm

Bought the truck but cant afford to feed it :lol:

Gone are the days where $30 buys more than 30 litres. Bloody cost 35 bucks to fill my gas can the other day so i could mow the lawns. :shock:

priceless PR, we have to see that vid.

Kaney how in the hell did you manage that? :roll:

Steve_t647 · Post by **Steve_t647** » Thu Nov 01, 2007 8:18 am

It does sound like the fuel filter with all the shakeing up and a lowish tank you possibly stired it up a little. Drain the tank into a bucket or similar and have a look at it if it is clean then take the filter off and tip the fuel out of the filter, if it pours out fine then look at the injectors.

It sounds like a fuel thing but earthing for the coil and Injectors could cause a similar issue.
