Thank you, be assured that I learned my lesson, no more clear flood mode :)

When I reset the rotor I just removed it to see if it was broken somehow, thanks.

Ok, I told myself what the heck, I took out the dissy, aligned the mark and pointed the rotor to the #1 cable. Put everything back and it started perfectly. Still going to use my timing gun to check the timing. Thank you all for your advice!

I am confirmed fuel in the return hose. I jumped the FP and B+ pins as well to bypass the fuel relay and COR, crank bu no start. I checked all of the fuses and relays with my multimeter, all check ok. I am leaning toward a dissy timing issue since the coil was disconnected from the dissy...

I will be clear, I have not changed or modified the timing, I currently have the #1 piston at the top of the stroke. The crank shaft pulley is at 0 and the rotor is pointing south. My questions are: Would a bad dissy cause this? Should I take the dissy out and realign it to the mark in...

I replaced the cap and rotor when I started doing beeline maintenance about a year ago. I have not messed with the timing. Only that in the process of troubleshooting the crank no start, I removed the dissy cap and noticed that the rotor was pointing to the 6 o clock position with the #1...

The engine was running, but idle was a little rough. A couple of months ago I began seen white smoke from the exhaust, not heavy, but white enough to see it. Thanks.

I did unplug the coil from the distributor and its power cable. Thanks.

I used this video from Timmy the toolman as reference for the compression test.

In clear flood mode, you floor the accelerator, hold it, and try to start it. This helps measure the compression of each cylinder by preventing the fuel injectors from spraying.

Hello, I have a 1993 Land Cruiser, US model. Has anyone used Clear Flood mode to test the engine compression? Unfortunately I did and even though the compression tested good across all 6 cylinders, after putting everything back, the LC will crank but not start. The spark plugs were out of...

Awesome build, an inspiration for my 93. Which rack do you have?

I got the OEM one rebuilt. It works fine now, thanks.

My power steering pump was leaking so I replaced it along with all the hoses between it and the steering gear. All were hard and inflexible.

In your case, does your battery measure 12+volts when enginne is off? When the truck does start, does the battery measure 14+ volts? I had a similar issue at one point. After a new battery, new Big 3 pos-neg cables, rebuild starter. I opted to replace the alternator. Replacing the...
