Hi Guys,
I'm new here so let me start by giving a description of the car.
I have a 1989 Plymouth Reliant K LE.
62k Miles
We just got the car last weekend and I wanted to change out the filters and plugs before I put it on the road.
The coil,Ignition module and injector were all replaced by the seller.
I got it home fine and it ran great, I replaced the air filter and the fuel filter and now it won't start. It turns over but it wont start.
Fuel filter replacement process was as follows.
1. Remove in-hose.
2. Remove out-hose.
3. Remove old Filter.
4. Replace out-hose.
5. Replace in-hose.
6. Mount Fuel filter.
One thing I noticed about these lines is that they are very soft. The rubber is almost like melted and sticking to my hands. This might be due to the gas on my hands, I don't know.
Now the car won't start. I double checked the in and out hoses are correct and the fuel is flowing in and out of the filter.
I am still waiting for my repair manual in the mail but my next idea was to get some gas and dribble it in the intake while I have my buddy crank the motor to see if it's getting spark at least.
[EDIT] I just remembered where the injector is and I should be able to see the gas come out if it's working so I may not even need to dribble gas in if its working... Last night I was trying to do it by myself so I couldn't see the injector.
Assuming I have spark, Do I need to maybe bleed the air out of the lines somehow?
Thanks in advance!
