I drive a 95 c1500 ext cab auto 5.7 V8, yesterday i drove it all day without any problems then got home bout 10, and went to leave bout 11 and the truck wouldnt start. i turns over but acts like its not getting a spark, ive tried giving it gas while starting it but nothing happens. Anyone have any suggestions or know of any other posts for this problem please lemme know.

Well, check and see if it has spark, if ok check fuel pressure, basic diagnostics.

First check for good hot blue spark to spark plugs two or more.
If spark move on the fuel pressure.
Is fuel pump kicking in or running?
Will it start with a little carb cleaner?
What engine code? TBI or K eng code?
Can you see injectors spraying?

Hey, the same thing happened today with my '93 5.7
Had it towed to the dealer. They are to call back tomorrow.
I may be at the FORD DEALERSHIP, however, when they call.

The Chevy dealer in Virginia Beach said the fuel pump went.
$430 later I have a truck that now runs with a "lifetime" warranty on the pump.
