90 Ford Southwind start-no start by samV
Post New Message My 90 Ford Southwind had not been started in about two months. Engine battery was dead...used the booster overide start switch allowing me use coach batteries for added power. Engine turned over and started, idled for a moment. When I released the booster switch the engine died and would not restart. I have spark at the plugs, it wants to start when primed with starting fluid. I do not hear the in-tank fuel pump working though. It was replaced about 7 years ago. The engine is fuel injected. There is no "fuel system" fuse in the fuse block. Is there an inertia reset switch? Where is the fuel pump relay? Is there an in-line fuse somewhere? It is a 34' class A. This is a good running rig with few mechanical problems. Need some help here..
