Starts. Then dies.


Recommended Posts

The engine starts. Then, like clockwork, dies after about 5-10 seconds.

 

Since I started it last, I changed the brake booster, air box, evap canister, pos/neg battery cables, refreshed grounds, and washed the engine bay (I was worried about doing this, but it was filthy). Where should I start?

 

I'm pretty new to this, but appreciate all the help I've received on this site. Thanks!

Sounds like the fuel pump.  

 

Check the ballast resistor (driver's side fender).  Bypass it by connecting the two wire together.

 

If that doesn't solve it, then get the DVOM and test the wires.
