Good Evening.

A couple of day ago i bought a mk1 Fiat uno turbo. It had a small fuel leak so the engine would cut out at higher rpm. Its a tuned engine (taking 1.2 bar) and the car itself will take some restoring before it can be driven. About three days ago i started it up and it was only going on 3 cylinders, then the next day i could only start it while pressing the gas pedal to the metal and even if it started it only slowly rotated for as long as i was pressing the throttle. After that i did a check and i had spark but the fuel pump wasnt working. Today i discovered that the spark was gone aswell. I replaced the coil and air flow meter, no effect. the ecu`s seem to be fine and the fuel pump works if bridged straight from the battery. Could the leak have caused something like this? I still havent localised it. The Fuel pump control relay was changed and the fuses are all ok.

What shall i do?
Please help!
 
Hello
have you already tried to change your spark plug cables?

Another question...my interest

you told that your engine is boosting 1.2 bar ,could you please tell me if your injectors,ecu and the FPR are from factory...
that would help me a lot because I've got an MK1 also and want to boost up to that...
 
I did not, but i will try shortly

And the ecu injectors and FPR are original.
 
Its going to be something like the fuel relay, tdc sensor etc, something not obvious.
