    Default Help, VN Won't Start

    Hey Guys

    I have Series 1 VN that I am having issues with getting started.

    I've just done new exhaust, cat converter & extractors. Changed fuel filter & transmission filter.

    Had another post up & thought it sounded like fuel system. There were some injectors that seemed rooted so I've changed them over & still can't get to start. Sounds like it is all turning over alright but still won't start. I can hear the full pump & there is fuel at the rail so I think the pump is fine although I don't know alot as I am picking things up as I go.

    Any help would be appreciated, want to get this thing rego'd soon...

    new injectors? did you take your leads off? if so make sure your put them back in the right firing order (on plugs and coils). id go ahead and put some fresh spark plugs in it too just for shits and giggles...

    Take a lead off, place a screwdriver in it and place it near or on the strut tower bolts and crank the car and see if you are getting spark....
