240 won't start 200 1988

Lujo,

You are not alone with your no-start difficulty.

My '89 740 Turbo crapped out much the same way.....ran fine for about half an hour then suddenly quit and won't restart.

It tries to start after I squirt something combustible, like carb cleaner, into the intake.

Seems to get no fuel otherwise.

Some have sugested the Hall Effect sensor, the RPM sensor (don't have this on the turbo engine) or the radio suppression relay (which is a fuel system relay)
