    99 Volvo Penta 5.0Gi won’t get power to fuel pump.

    The ECM applies a ground to pin 86, and this turns the pump ON Yes something inside the ECM could be broken and would need to be sent out for testing if that is the problem. If the wire from pin 86 to ECM is intact, then the ECM needs to be checked

    Volvo 5.7 gxi c No Start

    Its not common, as before if its leaking no where else, and injectors are not staying ON, then it has to be the injectors. The way to find out which ones is to have all of the cleaned and tested. Figure around $25 each

    I wouldn't do that, its best to find out what the issue is. It may be inside the 10 pin engine connector. The ground return like the hot goes through it

    Volvo 5.7 gxi c No Start

    There is also a possibility that the ECM is keeping the injectors turned ON. Use a NOID light on each injector to see with the key ON and motor OFF if the injector is still ON

    Volvo 5.7 gxi c No Start

    No, your fuel pressure is fine If the injectors are leaking then they are the problem. I would suggest pulling the injectors and have them cleaned and flow tested. Don't use a place that mainly does autos, it needs to do marine. Mercruiserparts.com or boatsunlimited.com There are some others

    Volvo 5.7 gxi c No Start

    Those motors use what we call a crap cap. They are flat and fail without warning and can look great. Most keep a spare on board just in case. Measure your fuel pressure should be 50 to 60 psi at the fuel rail. In most cases if the injectors are dumping fuel then the injectors have the issue...

    Have wiring diagrams thru GXI-D Your GXI-F, with a Black/purple going back to the ECM and not ground from the start assist relay coil return, this is different. If it doesn't go back to the ECM and does go to ground, then agree its the grounds on the motor.
