93 4.9l efi auto.
2 days ago started truck but it was very hesitant but it was running, once it had been going for a while it was running fine. did that yesterday morning, was weak/ misfiring, but once running for about 10 min or so problem went away.
This morning: Crank, Crank, Crank, nothing.... after about 3 minutes of trying I got a coupe of fires but never enough to keep it running.
this went on for about another 3 to 5 minutes. pulled off the coil wire tried to clean the ends and put it back on, ( dist post looked corroded ) then pulled my breather off and sprayed quick start into the throttle body with my wife turning the key......nothing, and again nothing....
If I put a spark plug in the end of the coil wire there is mega spark, ( shocked me through my work gloves), put it in the #1 plug wire and I see some light but not a whole lot. put it all back together,
crank ... nothing
crank with quick start ...... nothing
I can hear the fuel pump turn on but I don't see a shreader valve to check fuel to the lines but I can almost feel it when the pump is running when you first turn the key.
this is the first problem I've had with this truck and I would really hope that it stays that way but Why if there is some spark that I am getting no burps or coughs or fire when spraying quick start into the engine. and that it went from coughing to not coughing.
