Re: S-10 wont start
An engine needs 4 things to start and run,
Fuel- is fuel pressure up to spec- measure it with guage Air- is throttle bypass, IAC open Spark- do you have nice hot blue spark- tested with spark tester? Compression- sure engine doesn't turn too easily? as in timing chain failure? Year and engine size would be nice-my crystal ball says it is a 2.2L- with a sloppy timing chain-- but I've guessed wrong before.

it is good to give vehicle details....engine/yr/mileage etc... squirt an ounce of fuel in the intake manifold see if it starts..take a plug wire off get old plug cranking engine blue spark ? why is fuel pump/ filter good ? how did you determine this ? what was the pressures...also did the fuel pressure hold on ignition off cycle... other items like a plugged exhaust can create a poor/no start.. the engine is a pump if it cannot exhaust it cannot suck in air/fuel... need more vehicle info to see what other stuff or testing required get DTC failure codes .. |
