Suzuki Vitara fuel injection short
Hi, I'm posting from a remote part of Scotland where our 1997 1600cc
Suzuki Vitara JLX has hit a problem with its fuel injection. The engine just cut out one cold and wet night, stranding my wife miles from home. We got the Vitara towed back home and all we can find is that the fuse to the FI keeps blowing as soon as the ignition is turned on. The engine turns over fine, but of course doesn't start. We unplugged every lead under the bonnet relating to the fuel system that we could find to try to isolate a component that might be shorting, but no joy - it just kept shorting. Nearest decent garage is 90 miles away - a bit far to tow it. I just wondered if this may be a problem anyone's had experience of? |

Thanks, both. No, Jack, I haven't looked at the fuel pump, but will
now. I was aware that that was one thing I haven't disconnected (haven't found the little sucker). I don't hear the fuel pump as the fuse blows on the turn of the key. As you say too, Harry, could be the ignition but then everything else seems OK with that. I'll report back when I get a chance to look at it in amongst everything else that's conspiring against me. |
