So apparently my fuel pressure is fine too and it's looking more like I had an overload somewhere in the harness especially the ignition part. Probably some backfeeding. Gonna take a look at my ignition switch first since I know it was a cheapo amazon one before I bought the truck
Yes the orange ones. I'm not sure what system they were part of but definitely wasn't doing me any favors. I will continue to check what I can but its coming down to fuel pressure and wires behind the motor that I can't see or reach
Before seeing this I did investigate the pcm, pulled it out and opened it up, 2 blown capacitors. Still researching other things while another is on the way, as my next step.
As for the fuel, it sprays perfectly fine as if running normally, the pump does build pressure every time you start it...
I'm at my wits end with the truck.
