    stalled when trying to restart starts cranking normal then acts as if timing way advanced

    after rereading the replies I realize that Churkey described my problem to a T in his Jan.17 message at the time I did not want to hear what I thought was bullshit about using a scanner to solve the problem.I now realize if I had done so I would have saved time and aggravation to say nothing...

    1999 GMC 2500 5.7 Knock from Hell....

    sounds very similar to the problem I had same thing just died barely crank and god awful noise.if when they put distributor back in if they did not use a scanner (I hate to admit it)to set the CMP/CKR correlation it can cause a crossfire condition that can do what yours is doing.not saying that...

    thanks that is what pissed me off with the scanner comments they are not the answer at times.plain old school thinking is the best at times time consuming but brings results.even though mine showed no signs of a misfire

    Neutral saftey switch bypass

    if you have a test light test for power on (c)with key on then with key off.if power with on then jump (c)to (e) e should be starter solenoid and (c) should be the power.good luck.I am sure someone will correct me if wrong.just touch the two do not join the key on should allow the ignition to...

    it was a journey for sure glad the mechanic ( not just a tech) was a racer also this helped. had to pay for his time.as I said no warning made it hard to find but life goes on.glad to see you did not take my comments to heart just tired of people posting bullshit without a solution.

    stalled when trying to restart starts cranking normal then acts as if timing way advanced

    well update time it turned out to be a (new) blue cap that developed a cross fire after 2 months no hint of a miss whatsoever.cost a small fortune to finally track down.please no B.S. about a scanner finding it.the cross fire caused a sever flooding condition as every time it cranked it of...

    Stuck balancer

    a little late maybe but here goes if you use shorter bolts bringing the tool closer to the damper and get a grade 8 1/13 fine bolt instead of the bolt that is now with tool they are to soft and gall under load.use a lube also.the ideal way is in combination with what I wrote is to use an impact...

    again you come to my aid.I was hoping for an ideal pressure number (eg 185-195) I know about the split difference.surprised at100 being acceptable as the low. now to find why the left bank appears to have been flooded while the right seemed to be dry.I miss my PDF manual at times like this...
