87 5.0 Doa
Ok, this car was running fine, but the lady demanded a manifold gasket swap. Pulled off the plenum, lower intake, bolted it all back together and hit the key. Nothin. Well, actually, it cranks, but doesnt start. The distributor is set to number one/TDC test, the timing is on, and the injectors are clicking. The only clue I have is the fact that the check engine light is not on during initial ignition(light test), but it comes on during cranking. I have spark, I have vacuum draw and I have fuel. If I fully open the throttle plate and spray ether down the plenum, it tries to start. miss-fire-miss-fire-miss-fire, nothing. Anyone who has a good idea on this one HELP!Right engine, Wrong Wheels
Damn, that's something I didn't want to hear. I'm glad I got to meet him and Rosie and Rick. I'm proud to have had him as a friend, RIP Johnboy
