The vit im breaking up to pinch the engine from has
Lost its spark. It was a woman's daily then sat up for a year

It was started regular but then one day won't fire up.

I don't really know these engines/vits so any help is greatly appreciated

Before I go checking for volts everywhere

Anyone recommend any components to check?

I also can't hear a fuel pump running from the tank. Can you hear them on vits?

Cheers dudes

Andy

Guess we should have discussed this earlier!

I can't hear my fuel pump so I'll say no to that question.

Other than that it's the usual suspects.

Get the multi meter out and have a poke around.

If there's no spark, I'd work backwards from the plugs.

Had a check for you, when I put in the ignition key and turn it so the idiot lights come on there is a slight whirr sound...guess that's the fuel pump!

hmm id say what Edd has said, Start from the plugs and work backwards. could be just as simple as a fuse!

Ditch that, they can be very unreliable as most are getting quite old now.

Hmmm looking for ideas if anyone can help me

Checked all fuses visually and tested the big main ones
Charged battery
Removed aftermarket alarm
Checked connectors

No noises from fuel pump and no spark

Dead ecu?
