Steven87 Member 109 Member For: 13y 1m 6d Gender: Male Location: Westside Posted 02/01/13 10:46 AM Share Posted 02/01/13 10:46 AM Hi I've noticed for the last couple of days in the morning when I go to start my car it cranks then starts up then dies, then when I go to crank it again it take at least 20seconds to start. Is it my tps faulty. Hope it's nothing too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyones quick to blame the tps in these before looking at the basics first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possible the pump has sh*t it self, Fukien walbro pumps. What pressure should it be when startingAlso is it easy to hook up a fuel pressure gauge on the fuel line in the engine bay.

The car self tests the TPS each time the PCM is power cycled. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
