    Truck cut off 1/4 mile from work in the snow. Checked the ignition coil. No spark. Went to the fuse box. Blown 15A fuse off the relay. Worked a full day and made it home with no problem. Thanks. This video was key to troubleshooting.

    Hi, my 99 s-10 p/up 4.3 is doing the same thing. I checked to see if it was getting fuel thats ok, then I removed the spark plug wire from the coil and lots of spark even from pretty high above the coil and put the spark plug wire back on and the truck started right up. I played with the wires all around the coil to see if I could get some kind of reaction from the engine but it ran smooth as always. I am now worrying about it happening again at a bad time and get stuck somewhere. PS, I changed the coil,wires,cap& rotor and pvc valve. Cleaned M.A.F & throttle bodie & new fuel filter all at 5000 mile ago.

    How would I know if it might be a battery? My wife drove home last night no problem and then went to drive again to goto the gas station and it wouldn’t start. Acted like the battery was low.
    I tried starting it today. I can hear the fuel pump priming. I hooked up a jumper battery but it still wouldn’t start and basically drained the battery.
    Should I take the battery to autozone and get it tested first? I’m wondering if a bad battery would cause the symptoms. If it was alternator, it should have at least jumped off

    Have an 02' Blazer ZR2 & drove it to the store & got back in & nothing! It would Crank but not start.
    Luckily I took it to a Mechanic that knew about 4.3's & he checked the ECM & Coil.
    He found that it was cracked immediately & replaced it & I was on my way..

    @gemanscombe4985 3 місяці тому

    @7:30. Orange spark is weak and coil may be failing. Blue spark is strong and coil is okay. Color shows temperature of ionized air of the spark gap. Blue is hot, orange or yellow less hot. @9:48, rat droppings on distributor cap can mean chewed wires. Rotors have asymmetrical mounting lugs underneath to prevent installing 180* off.

      Timing lights are cool and what not but pulling a boot off of a spark plug, remove spark p. Plug spark p back in boot , rest electrode against exhaust manifold, turn ignition sticks , if you dont see spark there , start backtracking …same ol shit, different century.

      @crack1666 Рік тому

      I've never had to deal with it on my Chevy, but a coworker had that issue, there is a switch under the pedal (or somewhere nearby) that when pushed in, it completes the circuit and allows the brake lights to power on, when released it closes the circuit so that the lights turn off. Turned out her switch was old and stuck open whether pressure to the pedal was applied or not. Was easy to replace and did the trick. I imagine you have the same issue

    Add on idea:for car owner diy'ers: check some spark plugs if badly worn, then also replace spark plug wires with as well. Put dab dielectric grease on each plug boot.
    This is the extra care the dearlership mechanics do when working on thir own cars.
    (Mo commisioned service mgr breathing down their neck to maximize profit by rushing the tech , while still overcharging the poor customer).
    Parking brake on will avoid daytime lights going on and help recharge that nearly dead battery.

It had pressure in the fuel line, fuel pump was working, has spark to the spark plugs. I checked everything you did. Is it the cam sensor?
