- TOW IN: THE ENGINE CRANKS-OVER, BUT WILL NOT START. PERFORM NECESSARY DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND ADVISE:
- FOUND: I inspected the vehicle and verified the client's concern that the engine cranks and will not start. I found the engine is flooded. I cleared the flood condition and started the engine. I found a significant misfire present on the number 3 cylinder. I found the secondary ignition components are fuel saturated. Spark is available. I performed a compression test and found compression is nominal. Using an inspection camera I commanded the fuel pump to the on position and monitored the cylinder through the spark plug hole. I found a significant amount of fuel leaking from the fuel injector. This is an indication that the direct injection fuel injector for the number 3 cylinder has failed. There is a significant amount of fuel present in the engine oil. Recommend replacing the number 3 fuel injector, spark plugs, performing an air induction service and performing an engine oil change with flush to remove excessive fuel from the crankcase. The possibility of damage to the internal engine components due to engine oil breakdown as a result of fuel contamination may be present. Monitor for oil consumption and excessive tail pipe smoke over the next 500 to 1,000 miles.
