Slip off form work early....trucks respond better when being cussed during working hours! (That's what the Central TImer Module is really for!) Works for ME!

This is what happens when you don't use enough snake oil.

i think GD is onto something. if your truck was originally sold in California its probably got a Pacific Timing Module, PTM. Since your truck is in Oklahoma, it will need to be replaced with a Central Timing Module, CTM. I'd send you mine, but it won't work either because its an Eastern Timing Module, ETM.

you'll need to go to the dealer for this type of service.

It's about three degrees cooler than the surface temperature of the Earth's sun, and my truck still doesn't run.

You guys suck.

Looks like I might be able to get back to this truck some time in November. The remodel on my house has been progressing and all of the materials that have been occupying the garage are finding their way to their designated places of installation.

So, are there any suggestions where I should start with this? I'm fairly certain it ran when I parked it since I couldn't get it to run, but then that isn't always the case, right?
