Saabers..
Here it goes: Checked wiring.. can hear both relays by the footwell clicking. Ran a wire to the fuel pump- working, Cracked open the fuel rail- gas shoots healthy, tripled checked the black wires that near the upper manifold- tight. Checked wiring, to the apc, air mass meter, throttle switch-all tight.
I then poured a bit of gas into the intake manifold, and the car starts right up, stumbles and quits. So, can I assume that the fuel injectors are not opening?
Again, the two relays clicked when the ignition is turned on, so does that rule out the ECU, since the clicking is present- or can I still have a bad defective computer?
Lastly, the NTC sensor- can that cause a no start condition. any way to check it less replacing? What am I missing? Car sat for a few years.
Thanks for any help Saabers.
