Hey folks,
I went out to the garage just now and the truck wont start.
When I turn the key the engine is turning but or maybe just the starter motor is running. Its way more than just a click but seems less than the engine actually turning. The sound is as if the engine it turning but its sort of high pitched like a smaller motor is what is turning (hence the starter hypothesis).
I took a quick looks at this link but I'm still not certain of where to start: Emergency Troubleshooting Procedures - FAQ Item (Recommend Keeping Copy in Truck)
Anyone recognize this specific scenario? I have a fusible link, EFI relay and fuel pump relay all on hand (for just such an occasion) but my search is finding that mostly guys are experiencing a turn the key and click.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Relevant info: truck has been sitting about 1 week; it has more than half a tank of fuel. The battery positive lead wasn't that tight but it is now (still nothing).
Thanks in advance for any replies!
