Well, so my Zed saga continues....

 

tonight my zed died on me whilest idling. I tried to start it to no avail (just cranking over). Called the AA out, (lovely bloke) who tried a few things, pretty much everything that i'd already done. He eventually got the thing started by keeping it cranking until it stumbles and catches.

 

Tomorrow I'm going to find out what's wrong with it. The symptoms are:-

A really unstable idle, sometimes dying, sometimes when the clutch is depressed the revs stay at, say 2000 instead of dropping down. Now I think the fuel pump is making more noise than usual. I know I can test it by checking the load on it, but what are the figures that i'm expecting?

 

Can anyone help?

 

Many Thanks in advance.

 

P.S. the plugs and PTU(type 2) are all brand new as of last thursday.

right.....deffo not any electrical connections, but check this out...

 

I disconnected the fuel line to make sure that fuel was coming out, cranked the engine over and it started for a while!?!? right, reconnected the fuel line back onto it and now it seems to start everytime, just a little rough....WTF!?!?

 

Anyway, I'm going to run back outside in a moment and surprise it, the b*stard will probably start too.

 

I stumped.....
