start

Alright so who can tell me what I am missing. Went to start the truck at lunch and it wouldn't start here is what I have. CEL is illuminated No click no crank I am able to start jumping the terminals on the starter with the key in on position I am able to move shifter from Park into gear...

Trying to start truck after 3+ years of it sitting. I had pulled the 5.3L Vortec/h55 a while back, sold the h55 and installed an nv4500. Cranks over fine but it appears it's got no spark. I cannot find the temp sender wire from the harness and the tranny wires are not connected, other than...

- I have a 1994 HZJ80 GX (non-turbo 1HZ) with 380,000 kms on the clock. For reference, I'm based in Kenya, where our best quality diesel is probably not up to par with average diesel elsewhere, but I only buy diesel from reputable, international companies (Shell, Total, etc.) - When the engine...

I am needing a cold start timer switch for an '88 3FE. It's the square connector and the no longer available part number is 89462-20010. Below is a pic of the harness side of the connector.

Someone on here will be able to diagnose this quickly, I'm sure. I've included a video. When cold it sounds like the starter is engaging but no cranking. Then your turn off and try again and it starts every time. When warmed up the problem seems to go away. Thank you for your help in advance.

Was adjusting max fuel on 1HD-T and turned it down a bit. Idle lowered as a result and was about to adjust idle screw when motor stalled. Didn't seem like it stalled from lack of fuel though. Now it turns over but no start (lots of grey smoke when trying to start). I'm now noticing that the...

Followed instructions on valve adjustment and happy with the result. While I was at it; pulled plugs and cleaned, adjusted plug gap to what's stated in Haynes Manual, adjusted points air-gap, cleaned up rotor, adjusted mixture, adjusted idle, and lastly adjusted timing. Rig runs much better...

My 91 has been f'ing up lately. At first I thought fuseable links, but I changed them and still the same! I have 12 volts to the underhood fuse box, but only 3.7volts at the B+ terminal in the firewall mounted test port........????? Any help would be great! Can't find it in FSM!

94 LC, Over the pass few months I have been chasing a engine stumbling issue while driving. No codes to help that issue. Yesterday the LC ran with no problems. Today my LC will not stay running, It starts then dies immediately. Pulled the following codes: 21, 42, 32 and 71(I always get this...

I've got an issue where once the truck is first started in the morning or becomes cool, it will "pop" once as a misfire on the first real tip in of the throttle. -It wont do it more than once as long as I'm driving in that session. It the engine undergoes a hot restart, it will not pop. It...

Finally treated Vicki to some upgrades I had been planning on from the start. Headunit: Amazon.com: Sony XAV-AX100 6.4" Media Receiver with Bluetooth: Cell Phones & Accessories Remote start: PRIME G9 | Remote Car Starters | Compustar Not sure about the brand of backup camera as I had a...

So I guess this is where I come clean as to just how much of a novice I am at this but so be it. After falling into a "you won't believe it deal" on a 93 80 series last year that was & is running and sounding great I decided before starting to dump non required preventative and accessory...

So I was warming up the wagon this AM, with the choke about 3/4 and it up and died after about 4 minutes. I restarted the usual way (3 pumps on the gas and turn the key) and moved it about 8 feet to put the windshield in the sun to help with the frost. It died again. I restarted and it ran...

Here's the situation: only does it when it's cold/er, it's not the cat shields, it sounds like a rotational clicking that speeds up when I'm driving. Eventually it goes away after the car is fully warmed up. I checked the fan and it's not making contact with anything. Could it be the starter...

My wife's 97 LX450 is experiencing something weird, when it's either wet outside or very cold, the truck will *BARELY* start, or sometimes fails to start at all. It'll turn over and over and over and over and if she's lucky, after 5-6 tries it'll catch and run very rough for a few seconds...

Any ideas what may cause this?

Some of you will no doubt remember the first time this happened when I was putting in a stereo three years ago, and then reconnected the battery ground cable, and the truck STARTED and ran in my garage until the shock wore off and I pulled the coil wire. Never figured that one out, but this...

New to the site, just bought my first LC. 2001 249K. I have one key that opens the doors but does not turn the ignition. The second key doesn't open the doors but will start the engine. I am thinking that the ignition was replaced and that is the reason for the separate keys. Does anyone have...

Here are symptoms: 1. Car cranks but doesn't actually start 2. I've tried jumping but that doesn't help either 3. Car was running and I saw battery voltage dropping and then car stopped. Generally I would look for missing spark but because of #3 I'm assuming I need a new alternator. Is that...

I took my wife out to dinner and upon getting in car to leave, the LC wouldn't start. Would crank and crank but would not start. I wondered if it were the key and got a ride home to get the spare key. Used the fob to unlock the doors and tried to start. Cranked and cranked but never started...
