My sister's rv:
Before: you could turn key on, pull solenoid up with finger and it would hold. Then start engine and tour the world. Just had to pull the solenoid in hy hand. They bought it like this a few years ago and used it a few times. Now divorced, time to sell the rv, so wanting to fix the issue.
It has sat for a year.
So the solenoid was not pulling in, but would hold with key on. Nephew started to pull solenoid out with intent to replace. Saw an empty solenoid box in the storage area, and it looked new...
So I had him replace the relay that feeds the solenoid and reinstall the solenoid. Now that works, but...
No fuel to injectors though. Intersting enough no glow grid for heating air. Give a shot of wd40 and almost starts, with now gid, i give a little shot of starting fluid. It wants to run, but no fuel. I remove this screw in picture (wd40 straw as pointer), and pressurize tank. Fuel comes up and tighten screw. Figure air in line from it bleeding off over the time parked, crack injector nuts- can't get any fuel. That screw is onnthe line that feeds directly to injection pump btw.
Scratching my head- any ideas?
