It's cranking with the switch, are you thinking one of the contacts in it isn't triggering something.

Nothing in the parking lot to snag on. It was on 200A boost the whole time I was cranking. I put it on charge for a couple hours last night. If it isn't raining when I get home I'll hook it back up. Don't want to be standing in a puddle with the juice going. Wrong vintage auto trans to pull...

See warwagon post. Haven't will check tonight if not raining. Have not tried this with the return line disconnected. With it connected no fuel past IP with lift pump running and very little past while cranking. Have one will try but likely not tonight. Currently PMD is hooked direct to pump...

Had not checked there, will check when I check fuel pressure and replace filter. No, I filled it before I left home and drove for 4 hours. Concerns me also. Truck was running fine, with no strange noises or loss of power, for the previous 4 hours until I shut it down. I've wondered about...

Just had a thought on the bubbles. The clear line was about 50/50 fuel and air before cranking. The motor shook pretty good when it started to fire so the shaking may have caused the bubbles and not additional air in system. With all of the cranking I have done, the return line has never...

I should have known better than to listen to the guy behind the counter at autozone and get their loaner tool. It wouldn't read any pressure, probably because there was nothing on the gauge side to depress the schrader valve in the adapter to allow fuel to get to the gauge. Got one coming into...

I really don't like this new wd40 can only shoots a stream not a spray

Glows tested out fine for continuity and voltage. Tried the WD still didn't fire but got more smoke. It did come close a couple times. Just plugged the block heater in, don't know if it works, and am going for fuel pressure gauge.

My fuel pressure/vacuum gauge is out of state with my timing light and dwell meter. Didn't take time this morning to get another. Had to take advantage of break in rain. Blew out return line. Loosened fuel solenoid. Got more smoke on cranking but seemed like still too little smoke. I think I...

I know but it is so nice to just be able to read the numbers plus having the rudimentary diagnostic capabilities the brick had. At this point wondering if the fuel stop solenoid is dead or dying.

I'm now setting at the computer where I can type instead of playing around with the phone. So I'm going to restate what has occurred to now. Last Monday when it was 0F outside the glows worked fine and truck started without being plugged in. At the time this happened it was in the mid-upper...

I was responding to wars ops comment

Cranking rpm was good. Had batteries hooked to charger and had not run them completely dead. It was warm enough today that glows wouldn't have made much difference. Plus when it died the motor was still hot after running 4 hours and only cut off for 10 min. If you read AK diesel's post, the...

Put some clear line in. Cranked a couple dozen times until batteries got low. Got about 3 in of fuel in the line. No bubbles.

Good solid stream of fuel. Filled 16oz bottle in 40 sec

Glows were supposed to be fairly new. It started when it was 0 outside currently 50s. Engine was hot when first no start

Cranked with lift pump running. Have fuel to injectors. Got a little smoke, didnt seem like enough for the smount of cranking, but still no fire. Will see if I can find some clear tubing to look for bubbles. The truck was showing no symptoms of having air in fuel prior to it not restarting...

Couldn't remember if that was the case or not.

Swapped pmd no change. Went direct from battery to lift pump and lift pump works. Have fuel at filter and drain. Lift pump not working when hooked to oem wiring. Need to find someone to crank while I hold wires

Just got in from being towed home. Haven't been able to do any other testing
