L10 no start

I've got fuel being pumped through the return line. When the motor starts on starting fluid, the flow increases a good bit, so I feel sure that the pump is pumping.
I'll try the jump wire on the solenoid. Also, I will go ahead and replace the ign switch. It's not expensive, and the old one takes a lot of wiggling to get it to turn on. Having phantom power is a problem that's going to need to be fixed anyway, even if it doesn't fix the start issue.
THANKS.

 

Agreed. That's what I was thinking. Although I am second guessing everything, given the problems I am having. It's always "fun" trying to figure out what was done to a vehicle in it's former life and why.

I ran a wire with a fuse and switch to the solenoid. Showed 12.40V at the solenoid. It was clicking, but not very hard. Same issue. Turn over, start on Start juice, but dies right back out. I don't know how hard the solenoid should hit, but it is cheap enough to replace, so I went ahead and ordered one. I also have another IGN switch on the way.
Still have the problem of only getting 8v through the factory wire at the solenoid. I doubt the ign switch will affect that.
Thanks for the heads-up on the videos. YouTube is a great tool.

 

Update: I went ahead and took it to a shop. Two hours later, they told me it was the ECM. I had them pull it off, and I sent it to a company called SIA. They advertise that they will rebuild an ECM for 400. If it's rebuildable. Mine wasn't, so they sold me a rebuilt one for $1300. Lifetime warranty. Still better (I hope) than $3500 for a new one. Runs like a sewing machine now.
