Starter motor, battery, fuel all fine. Wynns over just won't. Kicks over when spray starting fluid in it just won't idle.

Hi,

If it starts with starting fluid, then there is a fuel-related problem. This model wasn't offered in the US in 1995, so I don't have the specifics as far as fuel pressure specifications. However, that is where I would start checking.

Here is a link that shows in general how it's checked:

Also, make sure there are no vacuum leaks that could be causing it to stall after starting.

Let me know what you find. I'll try my best to help.

Take care,

Joe
