I have a laser which will start for 3 seconds then stop.
I put a test light onto the negative out of the dizzy. It lights when you turn on the ignition then sort of blinks very fast when it runs. I would not say it flashes. It looks more like an incredibly fast twinkling. Then everything just stops. What is going on? Which one is most likely to be? Modulator Coil fuel pump fuel filter Thanks for the help.

Changed the fuel filter which was not done for the 36 000km I have driven the car.
Not sure if it was change in the previous 206 000km. Started 10 sets of cranks later and ran nicely. The fuel that came out of the filter that was taken out was filled with what would be described as fairly fine black silt. The fuel was black too. I could still blow air through the filter with my mouth. Hope this info can be of some use to someone down the track. It was the fuel filter. The fuel filter wins!!!!!!!!! Soooooo,,,,, filters are important right? Last edited by 080; 20-08-2013 at 07:29 PM. |

The only think I could say it did to give any warning was what felt like a very fine tap on the throttle while cruising at 70km. Sort of like a surge. It did this once a day for about 2 weeks before it quit.
Need to do the timing belt soon and the clutch is slipping if I push it. Will be back for more info then!! |
