Now the truck turns over but its keeps crankeing and crankeing. I have a new fuel pump on there that isnt that old. Its like its not getting fuel. Its just cranks and cranks and cranks. I checked to see if the chocke closes and it does. Im drawing blanks right about now

frst gettinspark?
if not check seloniod. sp.?..

check wires. bad plug wire.. .
check conections..


not gettin fuel.. check fuel filter..
check fuel line any kinks..



does ur vehcile havea computer. check it

i went thru this about a month ago.. chased all wires. and all connections.. changed part after part.. till i broke down and got a diff puter.. runs now...


what type of vehicle.. is it carb.. tbi.. fuel injected.. throw a few moe bones and u might get more acc. answers.

The truck is carburated. It has a chevy 350 in it. I pulled a spark plug wire and stuck a screwdriver in it and let it sit on top of the radiaor hose and I didnt see any spark. Did I do this right?

Nope....you have to ground it to get spark. Stick the driver in the end of the plug wire and hold it about a 1/4 inch away from a grounded surface while cranking the motor. No spark=bad.

I stuck a long screwdriver in the 8 cylinder wire I believe and held it 1/4" away from a ground. I checked the ground first with a test light to see if it work and it did. I had no spark. I even layed the screwdriver on the ground and still no spark. What the hell is wrong??

Pick up in the distributer maybe?
just guessing.
i would check and make sure the distributer is
getting juice.

pull the main wire lea wire from the coil to distrubtor..
if u got fire there check with screw driver .. 1/4 inch away.. if u got juice.. then check ur dist.. pick up .. cracked distrubto cap.. might even be out of time. never know . justa few more things to look 4.

Thanks guys, it turned out that the new rotor was destryoed under the cap, and the mdule was no good at all. My lock and tumbler is sticking a little, can I spary WD 40 in the key slot??

WD40 will probably be ok, but you would be better off with some graphite... you can pick it up at Home Depot for cheap...
