So I've already cruised the forums here and other places and cannot find an answer so here goes. I was having a slow start issue for several weeks. I went ahead and replaced the battery and starter. After i got done replacing the starter the truck did start up like it did before, no improvement, maybe stronger cranking being a new starter but pretty much same long crank before eventually starting. It ran fine, i drove it around the block, turned it off and started it again, seemed normal as in same as it was before the starter being put in, slow starts. I woke up the next day to go to work, it wouldnt start. It cranks and cranks and cranks but wouldnt start.
So heres what ive checked so far. Ive check all fuses in engine and in car, none blown. Ive replaced the efi relay and efi fuse. I took off the fuel hose coming off the fuel filter and when its cranked fuel gushes out. I took the coil and plug out and grounded it and cranked the engine, i had no spark, and i didnt smell fuel coming out of the spark plug hole so i assume no fuel coming out of the injector.
Now I do have some trouble codes at this point. One is p1300, this code has been on and off for a couple months, ive already replaced this coil but it only comes on when the engine is warmed up and rev'ed above 4000-4500 rpm's, it shudders, misfires and the light comes on. It rev's all the way up when cold no problem. When the truck sits over night the code went off by itself and it otherwise drove fine as long as i didnt push it. Its back and staying on now.
Second code is p0340. This is a new code that only came on after the completely no start issue. i did hook up my reader after the starter replacement and there were no codes at that time. Now it wont start, now i have this code. I pull off as much as i could without further disassembly the driver side timing cover and the belt looked in good shape, no fraying or cracks or anything. i also tested what i believe to be the wires leading to the cam position sensor, i forget what the resistance was but it was not an open circuit fwiw.
Tired of throwing parts at it wondering if any of this sounds familiar to anyone...Thanks
