89 XJ, 210k, 10k on a new crate engine, with all new sensors for good measure.
It'll crank all day long, never fire, never smell gas.
It did this ten days ago, leaving work. Came back in the morning and it fired right up. Did it again last weekend. Poked around under the hood, pulled a sparkplug (dry) and it fired right up. This time it's done it for 24hrs+. All three times, it was after sitting 10+ hours. Never done it warm.
Fuel pressure seems good, gives a good healthy squirt outta the test port.
Hooked oreilly's test node to it, no flashes. Hooked the same one to my '00 "pretty jeep" and it did flash, so I think the node is good.
Old Man's FAQ says the only thing that'll kill the injectors is the computer. Others tell me a bad CPS might do that. I thought the CPS would only kill your spark, I dunno.
I don't have a good way to check for spark, no second set of hands to crank while I watch.
So? The computer? Stupid question, it's like below the glovebox, right?
Guy's parting a 90 on craigslist, over on the other side of town. What's a reasonable offer, y'think?
Thanks guys!
Robert
