[T3] square not running
I have been looking at the square for a while, and can't figure out why
it is not running.
The fuel pump is rigged to run whenever the key is switched on, and I
verified the relay under the rear seat is clicking. What is the other
relay for?
The tank is clean (the cleanest I have seen)
Timing looks good, from eyeballing it, and I have spark. the rotor/cap
looks good, and the points look ok.
All the fi connections look ok, a few splices but everything appears
connected. With the ignition on, I push the pedal and I can hear the
clicks of the injectors.
The engine just cranks over with out even a sign of it starting.
When I test drove it, it ran poorly, but it ran. I towed it home with
the ignition on but not running, and then it would not start after I got
it home. I swapped out the coil with a blue just to see if that was it,
and no such luck. It had a blue to start with. What should I try next?
