1990 V8 Q Stopped Starting!

90V8 · 03-02-2006, 02:20 PM

Okay, Ive only had my audi v8 for a couple of months, and just the other day it stopped starting! gotta love that, especially with all this snow on the ground. Anyways, I was wondering if anyone has had this problem or any insight of how to correct it. The other day I drove it till I ran outta gas by accident, and within a week I believe the fuel pump is junk. Anyone know where to test it, or where I might be able to get a manuel on this car? I can hear the engine crank and crank but that famouse fuel pump whine is gone. Thanks fellas

I would try to check the fuel filters. just crack one open a little then try to start it, if the pump is good you will get gas spraying out of the filter. Other than that i would have to go with you pump.
