Re: vs 5L flooding and won't start

Thanks Jayme. A harrop inlet with a holley is a tempting fix but i really dont like not being able to find a fault or make something work. Pcm is the long auto one and i would appreciate your advice with setting up an engine light.

Fuel pressure WAS checked but was done a couple of weeks ago at the same time as the coil, ignition module, map and throttle body were all swapped and checked against known good parts from a borrowed running vs ss parked nose to nose.

Re: vs 5L flooding and won't start

Injectors are standard and hold pressure with pump off so have ruled out stuck injectors. Tested + at both terminals on injectors with ignition on and injectors pulse (tested with noid light).

Re: vs 5L flooding and won't start

Earth wires are all good and fuel pressure is between 230 - 315kpa as per specs in VS manual. Timing is correct and engine will start and run with manual fuel restriction ie shutting down pump or clamping fuel hose so have ruled out any mechanical problems or stupid stuff like leads on wrong etc.

Re: vs 5L flooding and won't start

Engine is stock rebuild and ran spot on when it first fired up, have been through everything to make sure there is nothing mechanical wrong and if I manually restrict the fuel it will start now so have pretty much ruled out anything other than electronics.
