    96 Tahoe dies while driving and won't start

    I've fuel at every spark plug......I think the misfiring is the problem. Could low pressure be the reason for the misfire?? Tomorrow i'll check the timing again....there's help from a good friend.

    Good morning eysi, east302 and the other...;) I'll testing every connector on sunday. @east302: you said: " Revisiting the above, did you say that when you jumper the voltage and ground connection for each injector the test lamp is on with ignition on? For example, if you test between voltage...

    96 Tahoe dies while driving and won't start

    Ok.... I've checked the distributor cap: the rotor on the picture is at #1....... What's going on? Compression might be okay, right? Distributor/rotor position seems okay, right? What the hell....:confused:

    96 Tahoe dies while driving and won't start

    Jepp, There's no PassLock. The engine doesn't crank faster or rather.

    96 Tahoe dies while driving and won't start

    Thank you...;)! I'll check the compression tomorrow. But what is, when my timing chain jumped? Do i need a new engine, heads, etc or is the 350 vortec a non-interference engine? Could it also be, that the timing chain is okay, but the distributor is not correct in time?? It's only an idea.....;)

    Is the 350 vortec an interference engine? When the timing chain is jumped is the engine totally damaged?

    96 Tahoe dies while driving and won't start

    Hi Garrett, I've never checked the cylinder compression...I've no compression gauge. But I think the compression has nothing to do with the "no fuel issue at the injectors".....or am I wrong?
