Guys, I need your help.
I'm trying to start a '93 Explorer that was last started in 2009. The previous owner claims that at that moment the car was running fine (was not used after that because of taxes: ~1600$/year... which is a lot for Romania).
So, here is what works:
> I have spark
> I have fuel (new pump, new fuel filter, checked the fuel return line and the pump is working fine). I did not use the tank, I just connected a new fuel pump to the fuel filter and put it in a 5liters bottle)
> Engine crancks just fine
> I have signal to the injectors (tested with a LED on one of the connectors)
> No Check Engine codes
> New spark plugs
> I have tried to started with brake cleaner spray in the intake and nothing happens
(New air filter, new engine oil, new transmission fluid)
I have checked that safety switch and it is not activated (the one that stops fuel in case on a crash).
After a lot of crancking, nothing comes out the exhaust and, also, I took out one of the spark plugs and is bone dry and clean.
All I can think of is that the timing chain is broken and the valves are shut so nothing is getting inside the cylinders.
Any idea how I can test this?
Or what else should I try?
