I’m chasing down a long crank issue on my ‘91. It was often a little long, but this week it’s gotten worse.
It’s only when it sits overnight or at work for a long time. When it does crank unusually long it then stumbles for a bit before clearing out and after runs and starts like usual all day. Something I read suggested that could point to a leaking injector.
So far I put a gauge on the fuel rail and got the following readings.
Engine off after sitting all day, key on: 32
Engine running, same
After engine off key off 10 min elapsed: 21
After engine off key off 20 min elapsed: 14
My question is, is that a reasonable drop after running and stopped or does that point to a leak somewhere.
I’m also currently a checking the battery, it tested ok in November but when I put the load tester in it now it’s showing at the high end of the weak band for its CCA. I just put the charger on it and I’m going to check it once more, but may also be due for a new battery.
I’ve been driving it daily to work since November 70 miles round trip each day and it’s been running all weekends so it’s not sitting more than 12 hours at a time.
