MereCat Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Had the 7 in the air jacked from front. Dropped down and then tried to start...engine said NO. Acted as if flooded but then fired and only ran if applied throttle.. Question is would this be from oil being at the back of the sump so a little starved of oil ( pick up is at front on K series from memory) ?? Jacked up from back to counter effect and it started on the button...OR am I being a daft beggar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark w Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 if you "dropped "it try pushing the reset button on the bulkhead ( rubber button on top of square relay type thingy . ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jonathan Kay Posted May 30, 2014 Member Share Posted May 30, 2014 What else did you do to it? Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6speedmanual Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Nothing to do with where oil is tilted in sump. (you are ebing a daft beggar) Maybe just coincidence that it didn't start "first time". If the reset button had "popped" it would not have started jacked at either end. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MereCat Posted May 30, 2014 Author Share Posted May 30, 2014 Thanks for the replies chaps. I had it on the jack as fitted new rubber to rears, ACF the tubes and then had the front wheels off for a check and clean. Might have been a coincidence . I' ll go back to driving it then Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
