all the lines and connections are hooked up. replaced the O rings on the injectors, had to pull them anyway. dealer wanted 135$ for the Orings lol. got them at my local speed shop for 11$.

all looks good as far as everything being connected and seated properly. NO START! threw a code having to do with idle. didnt have the IAC plugged in. cleared code, no more CEL.

still NO START.

we have fuel pressure, have a spark though it seems weak. flooded it around 6pm last night. let it sit overnight and tried to start it. same thing. no start. doesnt even appear to try to go.

again, starter seems fine, fuel and spark are there.

gonna pull the O2 and see if that helps.

anyone else had a no start after the plenum fix? let me know what you did to fix it. im at a loss.

You got the ground wires hooked back up to the bolt behind the tube coming out of the water pump?

nmason 08-24-2011 12:16 PM

i believe so, ill double check. pulled a plug wire and the connector came out of it, happened to the next one too. gonna pull the plugs and replace the wires.

nmason 08-24-2011 12:23 PM

ground wires are fine. heading out for new plugs and wires. plugs look fine but have over 100000km on them. time to change. i cant see the connector for the crank position sensor, im wondering if that came unplugged somehow. spark, fuel, power, no combustion. no codes. if the plugs and wired dont help, gonna pull o2 and see if that helps.

zman17 08-24-2011 01:08 PM

The plug for the crank and cam sensor are to the right(driver side) just behind the distributor.

nmason 08-24-2011 02:09 PM

yeah i think i can feel it back there, cant see it. going to pull the cap off to get a better look. jsut got new plugs wires and coil. cap and rotor changed yesterday. start a new job monday, so truck is going to the shop if not fixed by the weekend

nmason 08-25-2011 01:11 PM

alright, back at it today after those insane thunderstorms and tornadoes cut my day short last night. pulled the plug wires and took off the cap. rotor pointing at the steering wheel, #6 i believe? 2 o-clock it seems. should be at 10 o-clock. gonna get my father to show me how to get it to TDC, make sure it lines up. put plugs and wires back and try to fire it up. everything else behind the intake appears to be connected properly. this SHOULD be it. will update.

first time doing engine work, man am i learning a lot :)

btw, zman, youre the bestest. but im afraid you may spend too much time in these forums lol

zman17 08-25-2011 01:15 PM

LOL, I'm on here all the time for a reason. That will change next week sometime though. (which I'm sure is going to make a lot of people happy)

i grabbed those links from your previous post on a wont start thread. great read

nmason 08-25-2011 05:44 PM

Truck is running strong!!! The issue was the rotor. i put it in the right position. however i mist habe cauhht it on something pitting it in. bent the springy connection and it was either catching on the cap or not touching the dimple up top. thanks again zman and anyone elae that helped me out. goes in for cat ans o2 tomorrow.
