    Confused about Why It won't Start

    Thanks for the info buddy. After talking with Turbine Doc last evening, I think I unplugged the wrong CTS when I was trying to debug it the other day. The CTS was another thing that we suspected might be causing the problems. If you recall, it always does have the SES light on, so I know it's...

    Confused about Why It won't Start

    I don't know about smart than you, but I have a busy next several weeks ahead of me, so the truck can't consume all my time. I appreciate all the help guys, but I need to do some testing before I can answer some of the questions. I did have a detail conversation with Turbine Doc last evening...

    Confused about Why It won't Start

    Yes, this is psychobilly's old truck. Truck has no rust with the exception of a couple bubbles on the drivers door. It appears to be original paint. I figured I'd get it running and put a new bed on it (other than a ding, this bed is in great shape but it'll be easier to change the bed than...

    Confused about Why It won't Start

    For whoever it was that suggested the wastegate, etc., I ruled out all that by removing the turbo plumbing so it could suck fresh air without the turbo. Still no start, so anything turbo related can be ruled out. I will check on the glow plugs/fuel ideas the next time I get out to the truck...

    Confused about Why It won't Start

    So, how do I verify fuel flow while running. I assume you're saying remove the return line from the IP. If so, where is this line located?

    Confused about Why It won't Start

    So it sounds like the next best guess is to unplug the optical sensor and see if it starts?

    Confused about Why It won't Start

    It can't be a bad lift pump or a hole because I get fuel out of the filter when I crack the bleader and run the pump. Also, I have the original LP off the truck and I'm 99% sure the PO installed a new lift pump.

    Confused about Why It won't Start

    The lift pump fuse is good. I've seen it a few times already while making sure the system was purged. I've checked all the fuses in the fuse box, but if there's a seperate one under the steering wheel, I'll check that too. When you say it's located under the steering wheel, do you mean under...

    Confused about Why It won't Start

    The lift pump will run when jumpered or I can hear it for a few seconds after I stop cranking, so I know it's running.

    Confused about Why It won't Start

    First, I work with older VW's as well as the newer ones. I have the VAGCOM software and build all kinds of VW's. My 1991 Jetta is about to get a 1.9L IDI from the Canadian market w/ a T3 Super60 turbo and larger intercooler. Anyway...one to the task at hand... I ought to be able to rule out...

    Confused about Why It won't Start

    I am the new owner of the 1994 Chevy 2500 6.5L Turbo Diesel. I am very knowledgeable with diesel engines and build/work on/modify VW diesel engines on a regular basis (probably 15+/year). I've even rebuilt a few Bosche VE Rotary Pumps before. Anyway, I've done quite a few things to the truck...
