Hi folks,
This is my first post. I have been searching through the pages for several years but find myself in need of some help.
I have a 78BJ40 (24V) with B engine that I bought from Canada several years ago. Body and frame have quite a lot of cancer but it has always started and ran fine.
Last year she started cutting out on me. Would be driving along and then she would die or I would start it and she would die but in the end would run fine again. On our last trip, I had trouble getting it started after I stopped at a local store. On the way home she died.......and I haven't gotten it restarted.
I haven't done much trouble shooting but in searching the site I feel like it is related to the EDIC.
Here is what I know:
- It will run as long as it is in the start position
- When I release the key to the run position, it will die immediately
- I have observed the EDIC and it moves to the over injection position on start but when I release the key it goes to kill (I have video but don't know how to post it)
I'd like some advise on how to trouble shoot this and narrow it down.
Thanks,
Emilio
