Bye-Bye

Blame it on the wife. Good one. Just say you are tired of it and want a new toy.

Crank No Start

That happened to me in my 1991 Chevy a few years ago. After going through everything it turned out to be the electronic pick-up in the distributor. It had enough power to give spark at the wires but not enough under engine compression. I replaced it and it fired right up.

No start

My 1992 C1500 did this and it turned out to be the pickup coil in the distributor. There is a specific resistance that should be measured. Discover that and check. My pickup coil was good enough to spark at the wires but not in the combustion chamber. When it fired up I was so excited. Best of luck!

96 Tahoe dies while driving and won't start

My 1992 Chevy had a similar event and after I checked everything it could possibly be, I replaced the pickup coil in the distributor. It fired right up. There is a resistance value that is easily found for your truck. I checked mine and it was shorting out when it got hot. Best of Luck!
