ECT connectors were good. And its new but iirc its a warranty part so I can have them get me a new one. My battery its on a charger right now but I'll work on it some more when the battery gets charged

 

Check the resistance on all of your fuel injectors.

I believe the parts store can test the camshaft position sensor (it's called a pickup coil to them).

When my camshaft position sensor was on its way out the truck didn't want to start easily but I got a code for it.

 

well im off work for the rest of the week so i can work on the truck. the boss lady said to take some time off and get the truck running again. so ill get on that tomorow. heres my game plan:

-change the timing chain for S's & G's
-another set of plugs
-check the resistance of everything
-check for power everywhere that is supposed to have power
-put a test light on each cylinder plug wire, and a second one on each injector to verify fuel sync
-if that doesnt work the some thermite on top of the block should get the old girl to fire up again

edit some slightly good news is that if i cant get this old girl running by the weekend then my dad will be bringing me my old jeep(he has more time and money to give it the restoration it needs) up to shreveport and ill be driving that until i get the truck fixed. so no matter what i wont be stranded for much longer

 

I only have 2 comments on your game plan:

I don't think you need more plugs.

Send me some Thermite!!!!

Now get to cleaning on that disassembly....

 

I'd get my hands on some C4 if I were you. This way, after you find out it's something simple, you can blow up the truck and you.

 

forgot to add 1 think to that game plan. i need to add "drink a case of beer" in between each step lol

 

That might be the problem to begin with.

 

i swear this truck is going to turn me into an alcoholic one day

 

HAHAHAHA, you mean it hasn't already? Work all week to make money to drink beer and work on the Ram all weekend.

 

lmao my boss told me to take leave for the rest of the week to take care of my ram like it is a sick child. even my boss know how much i love my truck lmao
