Car won't start
kspchew:
Thank you all for your replies. I am now at Tan Chong getting the problem fix.
First diagnostic by the service advisor is that its due to my CNG system, I told him that I could start on CNG but not on petrol but he still insist that its the CNG system problem.
No way is he going to check on the fuel pump nor the injectors if I dont remove the CNG system.
No choice but to start on CNG and go back to my installer to uninstall the system. Since the car cannot start on petrol, I got to tow it to Tan Chong at Lok Yang.
Never knew that Tan Chong is so rigid on such issues. :(
Ying:
since AS had just service your car, why not ask them to fix the problem? If TCM service liao car cant start we can go back and ask them to fix it FOC, so maybe AS also FOC leh.

CNG is an after mkt option, so it is natural that Tan Chong is sticky about this.
By the way, is Latio on CNG really much more economical to justify the CNG installation cost?

Did call up AS but they mentioned that they do not perform repair on the fuel pump, which is my problem.

Finally after a day of running about (730am till 445pm), they found the problem.
The damm fuel pump choke and cannot be repair, so got to replace one. Total cost, $410 for fuel pump, $120 labour+ $45 towing charges. :(
Next another bill for the uninstalling and re-installing of my CNG system. :(
The only plus point after today exercise, is that I finally ground the rest of the 3 points of the ignition coil to the VS, now there are 4 points grounding. ;)
About 16 mths ago, I installed the CNG system as mine was already on the verge of out of warranty. So far, based on my monthly mileage of 2000+km, I am paying about $120 for CNG and $20 of petrol for warm up and occassional run on petrol.
