truck died in aug, just got around to fixing it, had no fuel pressure, change mech fuel pump found the puch rod broke, new fuel pump, now has some fuel pressure, still no start, 20 deg, has 1/4 tank of fuel, summer fuel, no additives, checked oil in hpop, oil in engine, batterys fully charged, new starter, cranks like no tommarrow, no smoke from tailpipe= no fuel right? what am i missing? ran fine before it quit, also has new cps

how long did you try to start it after repairs , and also i have seen people leave the ipr unplugged after doing a fuel pump in the valley , is everything plugged in

ive been trying to start it all day, 20 min after i changed the pump i started, charger on the batterys block heater plugged in thought the oil might be to thick to fire injectors, crank for 15 sec leave for 1/2 hour, etc all day, didn't see anything left unplugged. i'll look again in the light of tommarrow

[SCUFFY828]

ive seen that ipr left unhooked thats why i say that , do you have a way to check fuel pressure , and also can you pull codes

[ozzy460]

no way to pull codes, i'll see if i can get a fuel pressure reading and a scanner tommarrow

[SCUFFY828]

let me know what you come up with , we'll figure it out

[ozzy460]

no way to read codes. batterys fully charge with charger on. i started with low fuel pressure, cleaned the screen it was full of algae, now has fuel pressure, no sure how much, i'm getting fuel through the system and back to the pump at the banjo fitting, hpop is full and i have oil going into the heads, seems like the inj aren't firing, all conections are plugged in, will crank all day but won't fire and still no smoke from the tailpipe, new cps, i even hit it with either ( i know bad but i was pissed off at it) would sputter then nuthin. is there a was to check the signal going to the inj without a scanner? all this the fuel pump was bad was getting no fuel at all now it is, but its been sitting since august.

you said it was 20 degrees outside....

what fuel is in it......its very possible the fuel is bad and or gelled. You may need to drop and clean the tank and blow the fuel lines out....

well it was 42 today. still has summer fuel in it, filler neck is in a misseable place and couldn't get any in it, has 1/4 tank, its drawing fuel to the fuel bowl from the tank
