Hi, I just got a 98 12 valve that the auto transmission is out of.
I want to start the engine to check it out before I remove it.
I tried to jumper from the battery to the starter solenoid and crank it and not getting it to fire.
Does this model have a electric lift pump?

Is the computer causing the the shut off solenoid not to energize?

Thanks,

Tom

 

You should be able to put the shut off solenoid in the run position manually. I believe all 12V motors have a mechanical lift pump on the drivers side of the motor. Might want to take a broom handle and push the plunger on it (a bunch of times) to prime, if it hasn't been running in a while.

 

Got it going, Thanks.
