hi , newbie so appologise to come in at the deep end
bought my first corrado(non runner) guy said it had beenn running fine then taken off the road for some body work
so in my wisdom i bought it blind on his word
got the car back home ,bought a new battery and tried to start the car , car just turned and turned
so made the mistake of buy then try
started with plugs,leads,rotar,dizzy then coil,all replaced brand new
car still exactly the same turns and turns
so checked the spark and all was fine ,very strong spark. noticed the new plugs were soaked in fuel so thought i best check the injectors and fuel side.
started with fuel pump relay then
removed each injector and done a spray test all seemed good.
then checked the 5th cold start injector and this also seemed ok
had all the timing checked and was all ok ,previous keeper had just changed the belt and done the head etc
i noticed when i try to start the car i get a big puddle of unspent dirty fuel actually leaking out the air filter housing box, i popped the top off to see the filter soaked though,the rubber pipe leading to the throttle body soaked and the inlet all soaked in fuel,so im guessing for some reason fuel is being pushed up through the inlet manifold all the way down and coming out the airbox as bad as a radiator type leak,
so i had bought alot of parts and spare engine anyways so i changed the whole metering head,the inlet manifold,throttle body,fuel lines ,injectors the lot but still got fuel pouring out the bottom of the airbox ??????
am gutted because it looks like am gonna end up selling this car even before a get to enjoy it
am not much of a mechanic but any help would be appreciated
ah yeah also changed the ecu lol :scratch:
