Went out to start my truck. It tried to start then just cranked over. Ots getting fire to plugs, can hear fuel pump running when you turn switch on. I haven't checked pressure, do not have fuel pressure guage, but will rent one tomorrow. I sprayed starting fluid into it and it still did not hit. All help appreciated

 

Having a issue like this with a Neon. Check Cam or Crank Sensors? Just got new ones checked my fuel pressure it was good acts like wants to kick messing with plug connectors got some life to system before Cam or crank sensor wasn't activating the ASD relay Dodges have to work coil and injectors. Guess crank sensor works RPM needle was using Torque APP with a OBDLINK Scanner adapter for OBD port inside vehicle showed RPM on it and new temp sensor was registering correct air temp vehicle hadn't been run so was cold. Starting to think the new cam sensor went bad somehow? Good write up on Chrysler Dodge Ignition...

If you have good spark AT the plugs, then you likely have a fueling issue. Either the pump isn't building enough pressure, or, the PCM isn't firing the injectors. While you are renting your fuel pressure gauge, get some noid lights as well, to test for injector pulse.

 

Now I have ran another problem, how do you do a pressure test with no shrader valve?

 

What type truck you got? Carb engine with a electric fuel pump? Or talking about mechanical fuel pump?

Need to get adapters that go between the fuel line coming from the tank, and the fuel rail. 97s with the plastic fuel rail just weren't a good idea.

 

It's got great fuel pressure. I checked the fire again and it's a orange brown. I always thought it should be a strong blue/white. So maybe coil is the problem, what do you all think

 

Are you getting injector pulse?

 

Still working on my no start issue here on a Neon. Checked over everything wiring, new crank and cam sensor. Have voltage at the plug for sensors and ground. Timing belt hasn't broke have looked through inspection cover on timing belt cover and cam is turning. How's the timing on your truck. What ill be checking today on my Neon make sure belt hasn't jumped a tooth or two making the cam and crank sensor out of sync. Being a interference engine on a neon hope haven't bent any valves but then again haven't heard any noise like tapping knocking going on cranking engine could be a good sign tough to say. Maybe chain on your truck jump a tooth being it's a 1997 have a cam sensor? Out of sync with crank sensor could be causing no start from doing more research. Probably good DODGE does this keep you from having major engine damage out of sync cam/crank sensor telling you timing might be off?
