Fixed : VT stalled and now wont start
Hi Guys,
I am about to head to vic for the both the xmas break and for my mums 80th birtheday but today the VT is playing up. Went out to get fuel and it stalled at a set of lights. Key off and started again.
Got about 200 meters to the servo, fueled up, started and drove about 500 meters then stopped again.
It started and then drove about 1km or so, before stopping and now wont start at all.
Engine turns over, but wont start.
Never run low on fuel, always (in the 6 months since i have had it) refueled at half tank minimum.
Battery is only 6 months old and checks ok with multi-meter
When it stalled there was no splutter, rise in revs or anything etc, its just like the key had been turned off.
Shorted pins 5 and 6 on the diag connector and received 12 - which i believe is all systems pass fine.
When i turn the key on i can hear the whine of the fuel pump, so i assume that is working.
Fuel filter is flowing fuel and less than 2000km old
Could the crank angle sensor fail with no code? Thats all i can think of at fault at this stage.
Im hoping its not the fuel pump as its a full tank of fuel !!
Any suggestions? It drove fine yesterday but today its not working.
