The Issue:

I was driving around town (30mph) when the car started misfiring, shaking, and wouldn't accelerate. For the past month or so I've also been able to smell raw fuel inside the car while driving (all boost levels and at idle).

After taking the injectors out, inspecting all necessary parts, and replacing them, the car fired up, and continued the misfiring, shaking, etc as expected. [br]

A second attempt and it refused to turn over at all, no electrical systems functioning whatsoever, they just died. I then disconnected the battery, waited a minute or two, reconnected and tried again. The SAFC and other cabin electronics lit up until I turned the key in my third attempt to start the car. Again, everything went dead. :confused:

The diagnosis:

Coil Pack, transistor pack, CAS, boost leak, injector seals, the injectors themselves?

Thus Far:

I have checked all injector seals, plugs, and wires. I will be pulling the coil pack as soon as I get the car home.


I would greatly appreciate any input on the situation.


Thanks,
Symple
 
Did you check fuses? Check the battery cables for corrosion or a bad connection. Check all of the chassis grounds as well.
 
Simply sounds like a bad battery if it would not turn over at all 1 time. Mark
 
I think he is calling the ignitor the transistor pack. But if the motor failed to turn over that is battery to me. Mark
