    engine won't start

    i've spoken to my friend who had a SC400 and had the same problem. He says his problem was the ECU but he bypassed it by rigging a wire from the diagnosis box (FP to the B+). Can anybody explain why this would happen and how to actually do this rigging??

    engine won't start

    My 91 LS400 won't seem to start up. Did anyone have this problem before?? It cranks and stays on for 1-2 seconds and then dies out. One day i drove it, then i came back to it and it wouldn't start. Im thinking its the hoses or the fuel filter?? any suggestions on how to fix this???
