Okay, I have my truck it has got new plugs, wires and coil pack, it’s got a new fuel filter and the thermostat, temperature sensors, cat delete get to g fuel and spark. I got it to run twice today timings good CPS wasn’t dirty. I'm running out of ideas. The inertia switch when I tapped on it freaked out but it’s not tripped. Any ideas? 99 2.5 dual spark Lima manual transmission. Any ideas?

Hi,

You indicated it has good spark and fuel. Are you sure the fuel pressure is within spec? If you have both and it won't start, either there is a timing issue or low compression issues.

Do me a favor. See if it starts for a couple of seconds using starting fluid. If it does and then stalls, we know it is fuel-related.

Here are a couple of links you may find helpful:

Let me know what you find or if you have other questions.

Take care and God Bless,

JOe
