1987 cossie parker ,close to starting
Parked since 2004 ,had rusty tank issues,replaced tank and cleaned lines,new bosch pumps ,filter ,have spark and good reading on alternator output,fuel pressure good and checked little filter coming into the FD ,the fuel lines to the motor are not getting fuel when checked on initial startup.I have an 85 cossie sitting beside it that had pretty much the same scenerio as it was also a parker but is now running .I borrowed the FPR from the 85 and put it on the 87 with some success ,would start w/ some coaxing AFTER I plunged the plate underneath the air cleaner ,it then kept running and the motor sounded very good,all the readings on the motor from the gauges were at spec but I had to keep it above 1000rpms or it would stall out so no idle was ever realized.Its know back to a no start issue and it may be time to look closer at the FPR for replacement but would rather get a view from others past experience in the fueling department of these notoriously costly parts .A further report into swapped parts from the running 85 cossie was the Fuel distrubutor ,Its getting closer but its still not right .The one thing thats come up during some other read ups Ive glossed over on this subject is at the fuel tank ,an inline part on one of the return lines has a piece ,not sure of its name but could this be partially clogged and causing these symptoms ?
