The way that’s cranking and running at the same time, double check your firing order after the lead/cap swap. Keep in mind, flywheel end is number 1.
Have you checked and confirmed this?
I have checked three times and it is ok. 1342 order firing. the distributor rotates anticlock wise.
I've Unplugged and checked the distributor cap another time.
Adding spray starter to the inlet manifold after the intercooler hose while craking and it has run a few seconds. this makes me think maybe is a lack of petrol or relays or fuel pressure regulator. something new to me, I'm afraid.
In the past in good running order (better than now) it took always a bit of cranking for starting, around 3 or 4 seconds. Maybe it is related to what is happening now and I don't think is normal in a modern car with electronic fuel inyection that delay on starting.
interchanging system relay and fuel pump relay (white socket) doesn't make any difference. I will buy new relays for discarding that.
And then, I will check the fuel pressure regulator, maybe it is stucked, but first I have to understand how it works reading about it.
