I'M NEW TO THE BRICKBOARD. I THINK I'VE STUMBLED ONTO A GOLDMINE AND WEALTH OF KNOWLEDGE.MY PROBLEM IS I BOUGHT THIS 1990 24O, 2 YRS AGO . IT'S BEEN GOOD TO ME, UNTIL 4 MONTHS AGO. THERE WAS A BUILD UP OF OIL ON THE REAR OF THE ENGINE-CLEANED FLAME TRAP!!! THEN WHILE DOING A FULL TUNE UP I NOTICED THE CENTER OF THE ROTOR BUTTON WAS COMPLETELY BURNT. NOW THE CAR WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE CAR IT SEEMS TO FLOOD AND BACKFIRE A LITTLE AND AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS IT STARTS. IDLE IS ROUGH AND SOMETIMES IT STALLS WHEN I COME TO A LIGHT OR STOP. I HAVE TO KEEP MY FEET ON THE GAS AND BRAKES REVVING THE ENGINE SO IT WOULDN'T STALL. HERE'S A LIST OF THINGS I'VE EITHER DONE OR CHANGED.
-CHANGED PLUGS, WIRES, CAP& ROTOR ETC.
-REPLACED FUEL & AIR FILTERS-MAIN AND IN-TANK PUMPS-RELAY AND PRESSURE REGULATOR
-CHANGED COIL, POWER STAGE UNIT AND IDLE MOTOR.
- TESTED AMM, IDLE SWITCH, CLEANED THROTTLE BODY, INTAKE MANIFOLD (THESE SEEMED TO BE SUCKING OIL DUE TO THE FLAME TRAP BEING CLOGGED)?
-CHECKED AND CHANGED 25AMP FUSE CHECKED FOR VACUUM LEAKS, CHECKED FUEL INJECTORS (ALL SEEMED TO BE TICKING WHEN THE CAR WAS RUNNING.)
- IS THERE ANYTHING I LEFT OUT?
THERE'S NO PATTERN HAPPENS WHEN ITS HOT OR COLD.IT HAS GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE, NOW THE CAR WILL JUST CRANK BUT NOT START. NOTE: MY OD SEEMS TO GET STUCK (OD RELAY MAYBE?) WHERE IS THIS LOCATED? HAVEN'T CHECKED FUEL PRESSURE BURT IT SEEMS TO BE GETTING FUEL TO THE RAILS JUST FINE. PLEEAASSEE HELP?
