Subject:      Runaway Starter Saga Continues
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed


I'm still in pursuit of getting my van running again after the runaway
starter incident. Here is where I am with it now.


New starter (engine turns - won't start - not even sputter)
New ignition switch
Fuel pump runs (pressurizes the system ok)


No start.


I tried a couple of shots of starter ether into the intake and it won't
fire on that either - indicating an ignition problem for sure.


It looks like meter time.


Any suggestions on where to start testing to track this down?


BTW - I don't fully understand how hall sensor works. I believe it is
suspect some how in all this.


Thanks,


John
