Porsche Repair: 86 944T Starting problem., ok dave, strange noise


Question
I have a starting problem. Notice it was losing power when ever you press the paddle driving. Then I pulled into my parking space. And it just wound down like it was losing power. No strange noise nothing. I check the voltage on the fuel pump connector. Check the voltage on the injector. The car sound like it wants to start but no joy. I am not sure if my fuel pump is bad or my coil. I have a new battery.

Answer
Hi Marlon,

So many possibilitities!!!! and so little time!!!!

We have to narrow this down...and quickly.  If you can do these following tests, give them a try.  If you need more detail or explanation, or you aren't sure how to do the tests safely,  write back using the all-experts follow-up choice.

1.  Test for fuel at the fuel rail.
2.  Test for spark at the coil.
3.  Test for power to the ECU.

Write back and let me know what you find, OK?

Dave
