Hey guys
Got exams over with, so got a chance to work at the R4 I am minding. I replaced the starter, battery and sorted out the earth cable and the engine now turns over. However, it wont start, and I think it is fuel pump related. The plugs are sparking, and I cant see fuel flowing through. Do fuel pumps usually go bad/any other suggestions?
I tried taking the air filter cover off in order to drop a bit of fuel into the carb to see if it fires up, but it is proving difficult. I removed the bolt at the top, and the housing swivels, but wont budge and I dont want to force it incase I break anything on my friends car. Something holding it down?
Cheers!
Thomas
