97 Jimmy no startDarren509 12-05-2009, 11:20 PM As you can see, no start. Just replaced battery (Die Hard) and fuel filter. Checked fuel pressure KOEO was @ 55 PSI and held firm long after key off. My chiltons says 54 psi is good, but here in the forums everyone says 60 min?? Motor is V6 CSEFI. Got dark and havent checked for spark yet.. If I find good blue spark, what next.. If no spark, what next.. maxwedge 12-06-2009, 09:48 AM Welcome to AF. 65 is the usual pressure for a Vortec set up, but try spraying carb cleaner into the intake see if it kicks. Darren509 12-06-2009, 07:32 PM Wont carb cleaner mess up my O2 sensors ? Anyway, checked for spark and have a nice oarnge kernal, pulled the plugs and they were soaked with gas... Spider assy?? maxwedge 12-07-2009, 07:11 AM No issue with the o2 sensor, you should have blue not orange spark. Darren509 12-07-2009, 08:09 PM So if I have a weak spark coming out of the coil wire, it should be a bad coil or posssibly corroded battery cables right ?? Darren509 12-08-2009, 11:04 PM Tomorrow night I will be doing more testing on batt cable and coil, but I have a question on the fuel pump. I have 55 PSI KOEO and all the threads say to have at least 60. But when I pulled my plugs they were soaked in gas ?? So is my pump good ????? maxwedge 12-09-2009, 08:34 AM The the regulator or injector spider under the intake could be leaking causing the low pressure and wet plugs. Darren509 12-18-2009, 07:34 PM Ok, heres a good pic, But does anyone know if this looks like a leaking assy or not ? I'll put up a few more pics..

GM factory spec for CSFI fuel pressure is: key on engine off, fuel pump running: 60psi to 66psi, and must remain above 55psi for 3 to 5 minutes after the fuel pump shuts off.
