Whats the little thing you've got by the drivers foot well? That a fuel isolation valve or something?

Because the injectors only run at the right flow rate at that pressure ?

Yup the split second that the connectors touch the engine dies!

Its a fuel shut off valve but wire locked fully open due to it closing under excessive vibration!

5 bar because that's what was always fitted and worked fine for 3 or so years before

Injectors will generally run at whatever pressure you subject them too, within reason. They will just flow more at 5 bar than at 3, and some people believe you get better atomisation at higher pressure too.

You right turning the engine over will generate suction on the injectors but I can't believe it would be enough to draw enough fuel to actually run the engine. I reckon just the pressure generated in the pot would be pushing the fuel through as the injectors open.

You have made a lot of changes to the engine system but I'm sure that the map couldn't be that far out, Faulty fuel pressure regulator I think ,

Hopefully that's all it is, the only thing iv changed is opening the restrictor ring up by 1.5mm and that won't effect anything on tick over.
Iv wired the pump up like it was before

what page number is you fuelset up on your project ,usually have just red top lift pump from a tank to feed a swirl pot and from swirl pot to high pressure pump down to fuel rail and return to swirlpot ,not sure how you've done yours

Top return to tank, next one down return from rail to pot, next one down supply from tank to pot, bottom supply to hp pump then rail

fuel line should return to swirl pot and as soon as that's full system is primed ,no reason then to return to main tank

Hmmmm seems strange that it instantly cuts out ? You would of thought it would run at least badly for a bit if it was over fueling. Sounds electrical to me and the ecu is causing the shut down ?

No but when the swirl port is full it needs to return to the tank!!

God knows Chris, I agree with you that it wouldn't shut down a split second after being powered due to over fueling

So is it the pump cutting out or the whole ecu as well, check the wiring to you're ecu?

no when swirlpot is full pumps wont run as if you've primed like when you turn key ,pump runs for so many seconds and stops

I think something is giving the ecu a reading or signal it doesn't like or out side a saftey parameter and is shutting down ? Could be wrong though

So with the car off but 12v manually supplied to the pump, will the pump run?

But even connecting the pump independently (out of circuit) causes the engine to shut off.
How easy is it to lift the fuel rail up with the injectors attached and put containers under each injector. Unplug the coil pack and on DTA you should be able to run the diagnostic test for injectors. On mine, they cycle through low speed to high speed. At 5 bar i would guess you'd get a fine conical spray depending on what type of injectors you have.

To be honest it was easier on mine as i could just open up the butterflies on throttle bodies and see what was spraying out of the injectors.
Otherwise wait until you can plumb in a fuel pressure gauge.

To the hp pump? I would assume so if taking it straight off the battery!

Both pumps prime off the ecu but won't start! I then disconnected the power for the hp pump and it started, with it running I then connected power to the hp pump and the engine cuts out straight away

No I don't the pump fills up from the bottom to top so bottom is supply to hp pump, next one up is supply from tank (fluid drops to the bottom supplying the hp pump) the next one up is return from rail (also dropping to the bottom to supply the hp pump and assisting the supply from the tank) top one is return to tank

You could probably have them the other way around but it certainly wouldn't cause any problems

it would if the HP pump was in the return line... (regardless of how its plumbed into the swirl pot, I mean how its hooked up to the fuel rail)
