If you can't then you can't. I'm just curious about what's happening when it doesn't want to start as far as spark/fuel goes.

I would assume that since it does run, it's just a b!tch to get it started in the frozen north, and I can keep it running, although I have to coax it to stay running for a bit, that it is getting spark and fuel. Just not through the entire process.
But I'll test all plugs for spark and run through the ckps tests before I yank it. Can always return if I don't need the thing.

I would put fuel gauge on just rule out that it has good constant pressure. Just because it's running doesn't mean it has pressure. May want to tap on the asd relay and see if that does anything. To get a spart the pcm need inputs from both crank and cam sensors. Usually if there is a brake in communication it will not fire for a second then run again. I had this issue with a bad crank sensor before. Put a timing light on the coil wire an look at the flashes. If there is a break in it when is acts up you know it's in the ignition.

The last time I almost posted the thing was fixed turned out to be only a temp deal since the pcm was prob in limp mode until setting were re-learned with which ever sensor I replaced. This time it's looking more permanent. Replaced CKPS last night while laying in the ice and snow at a balmy 15 degrees. woo woot! runs like a top! Took it out last night for 30 min no issues, idled this morning for 20 no issues, have been back out 3 times to run errands starts on the 1st try every time. to think I could have had this fixed a few weeks ago, but they sent me a CKPS for an auto trans and I needed the manual version. Went with BWS cause there's Ice fishing tourny this weekend...you know priorities and all.
Thanks to all for the ears and suggestions.
I do still have CEL, but I think I might have crushed the O2 wires or didn't get it plugged in all the way...fingers were going numb. None of the key-dance or trip reset tricks work to display the codes. I thought there was an OBD pin short trick you could do the get the codes, but I can't find the info.
