would a bad water pump keep your engine from turning over?

Re: stalled again!!

i have fuel at the rail, put in new pump a month ago, don't seem to have spark at the coils, i think i have a bad waterpump, could it keep the engine from turning over? it stalled on me the other day after fueling up and would crank but not turn over, put nem icm and coils in and still nothing. was cranking weakly, have 12volts on the battery, now it won't crank at all. did i crank to many times with a bad waterpump and seize the motor, is this repairable?

NO, what are the symptoms? BTW, your new thread has been merged with your older thread.

Re: stalled again!!

filled up on gas the other day, as i drove away from the pump the car stalled, and would not start agaian, had crank but would not fire, got towed home. been going through this for months, and have replaced:
plugs, wires, oil filter,air filter, fuel filter, fuel pump, idle air controler, crankshaft position sensor, oxygen sensor, thermostat with coolant flush, cleaned MAF sensor, also changed ecm but got no results so returned it, put new icm in and it idled a bit better, but eventualy returned it after a while to get money back, and now i'm dead in the water although i bought another new icm figuring that was it and have nothing with the new one.
right now i have no spark, it was cranking but now it won't even crank, i'm wondering if i'm draining the battery and have no amps to crank?

Re: stalled again!!

With the ignition switch turned to the ON position, do you have 12v to the pink wire #839 shown below? BTW, you probably have drained your battery & need to recharge it. What is the battery voltage?

Re: stalled again!!

Any error codes? I know my 91 is plagued with code 41 for cam shaft position sensor. Stalled me out plenty of times.

Re: stalled again!!

my battery voltage is right around 12v, at the pink wire i have 11.45v, at the relay on top of the computer i have 11.45v. won't even crank now, turn the key and the dash lights go dim, so i'm taking the battery to az to check the amps. my wife also just told me last night that a while back before all this started, the steering column was smoking on day, as if something electrical had shorted out?? maybe the ignition switch?

Re: stalled again!!

Smoke from the steering column happens to me as well, the reply I got from AF was that it is the multifunction switch (turn signal switch) needs to be replaced. I also have to hold mine up when making right turn signal, but for left turn signal it works fine.

The smoke, as was told to me, was from an electrical arc burning dust/grease from within the steering column.

Re: stalled again!!

did you change the switch and it fixed it, did you change your key cylinder?

When the battery has 12.67v it is fully charge, 12v or less would indicate a dead battery! More than likely, you have a problem with the ignition switch.
