Crank sensor then. Too bad you don't live here in NH. I've got a brand new Standard Motor Products T series I use for trouble shooting.

 

I have thought of that. Won't know anything until I check the fuel.


Now, that would bee cool! Too bad I'm a desert rat and I think only someone in San Diego would be further from you then me.

 

I don't know alot but if you think it's the fuel pump try roll under and smack the tank while someone tries to start it .alot of times that will make a failed fuel pump go again and you can get it home.

 

that woulda been nice if it worked for me when mine went out. i was on a 300 mile drive got about 275 down and my pump went out. that was an expensive night. 225 for the tow and another 200+ for the pump

 

I had a similar experience it would just die, everything worked it would crank just wouldn’t start or run. I found out by accident it was the 12 volt plug into the distributor, water & corrosion had gotten in. Sprayed a little WD40 in the plug, worked in and out a couple of times and haven’t had a problem since. Hope this helps. I have a 96 with 156K.

 

sometimes the electrical connector on the pumps get messed up. Once in a blue moon my pump wont prime, i just wiggle the wires slightly on the pump by reaching in there and then it fires right up. Good luck!

 

Along with what Cheap said. My 89 did this to me, it was the induction pickup in the distributor.

I feel your pain about the highway, I was stationed in Germany so doing over 100 when mine did it. Not fun!

 

Oem your truck should put put 44-54 psi of fuel at the fuel rail

 

Same thing happened to me, died in the brigade parking lot and I was able to deterime it was a lack of fuel that was causing the truck to not start. Fuel pump did not kick on when the ignition was keyed. Relay was fine, replaced pump and it fired up. No problems since.

 

Hopefully you have under a 1/4 tank of gas, although if you drive the truck on E a lot you can suck up some of the particles from the bottom of the tank and that can do your pump in or the filter (bottom of the pump).
