injected manual trans 4wd?
When I try to start it it turns over but will not start. the first thing I checked was the safety switch that cuts off the fuel pump if the truck gets hit hard enough. Next I had someone turn the key and I pressed the valve stem in the fuel line right before the injectors and it squirted out about 12 inches. Then I checked to see if plug was getting spark it was but spark was yellowish orange so I put in new plugs. The last thing I did was removed the big hose at the opposite end of the air filter
and tried to start with starting fluid still nothing . Any ideas?
 
you have a weak spark this is caused by a weak coil pack/ ignition module. You ststed that you had fuel in the fuel lines but you did not state if you had a injector pulse that is need for fuel to be injected into the engine. NO pulse no run. Check your ecm fuse, and make sure that your injectors are firing.
 
let me guess it wont keep running ! and jerks on take off then dies.
