Hello - I have a 97 Cinq 899 that I'm trying to sell, but I have a problem. I was driving this car for 4 months, and now and again 'specially at high revs the engine would stutter, coincide with the injector warning light. Once it totally lost revs out in the boonies - thought the sheep would get me . However it started again and I was on me way. It went along like that for a month, then it wouldn't start one day after I drove it awhile. The engince turned over, it had spark, but there was no sound from the fuel pump, which can always be heard in these cars as a whir when you turn the key once. I was thinking myself I have a dodgy pump that’s intermittent. A day or two later it was working again.
I posted previously here and got a reply that the TDC sensor might be the problem. If that is the problem, would I still get spark and would the engine still turn over?
At the mo' I'm driving another Cinq that I could sway out the TDC with as a check to see if it's the problem before I buy any replacements. Another post from the mechanical wizards out there in this forum to get me on my way, and I would be grateful -day off today – it’s a car day!
