In addition to low battery voltage, if that is the problem, it is very likely that the plugs are fuel fouled.

I've been fooled by low battery voltage before, car will crank fine all day long but not fire.

If that is not the problem start checking the basics to be sure you have adequate fuel flow and pressure, spark, etc.

Check to make sure you've got enough volts at the battery, below a certain amount (11 or something) the ECU won't fire the injectors.

Hello,

Where should I start looking for trouble with a no-start problem on an '82
GTV-6, knowing the following:


Ran fine when parked a few days before. I rolled it out of the garage so I
had space to work on a different Alfa.

Weather was below freezing and the car sat out all day. Tried to start it after dinner and it would turn over just fine but would not fire even a
little.

Pushed it in the next morning and confirmed the fuel pump is working and fuses 5 and 8 seem to be fine. In heated garage (55F) and still no fire.

Relays? Ignition Switch? Anything else beside grounds? The car ran fine
before this.


Thanks,
