It it were me unless somebody else thinks others wise I swap the pump see if it starts and idle . Then plugin a scanner and read live data.. if it runs rough or missed then do a compression test. My experience 350 can take some abuse lol

Just a friendly reminder, don't forget to disconnect the filler hose, vent hose, and the wiring harness on the back left side. Remove and clean the ground connections for the sender and pump, replace the suction sock and the fuel filter. Check the pressure hose that goes from the pump to the bottom of the cap for any cracks or bad spots.I think id much rather prop it up with a 2x4 and get the job done that way.
Yeah sorry im a bit of a newbie when it comes to anything related to that stuff but no I havent done a compression test yet, I will do one this afternoon and let you know how it goes. I have a huge feeling that the timing chain may have jumped since it backfired with fluids. The first time I used starter fluids to start it up it backfired and my airbox cover went flying lol.
I just noticed...we have the same engine hoist.Just gotta work smarter, not harder.

Ive got a question for you folks. How would I test the injectors to see if the ECM is sending a signal? I know there are kits out there that use noid lights but where exactly would they go? (My truck runs spider injectors)
No it doesn’t I’ve tried fuel and starter fluids but nothing seems to work, it backfires and sometimes seems like it will start but it doesn’t. I’ve also got my charger plugged inDoes the truck try to run if you dump some gas down the intake?
I also highly recommend throwing a battery charger on there, it can make a questionable fuel pump work until the alternator kicks in.
