I tried swapping in a spare TPS and it wouldn't start. I also tried the air flow sensor next to the TPS. Still nothing.I'm pretty sure There isn't water in the fuel. The night before it quit running, I filled the tank all the way up and drove it at least 25 miles then parked it in the shop over night and it started up right away in the morning, drove it out of the shop for a minute then back in. If it was an issue of timing of the injectors or spark wouldn't I atleast get some sputtering or backfiring when I turn it over? It has good spark, I cleaned a spot on the valve cover and laid a plug on it and it made a good bright spark. Treeclimber mention "jumping the timing" how would I do that? What does this do? Does the crank pulley have a timing mark so that I could put a timing gun on it to check that its firing at TDC? Is it possible to check injector timing?If I haven't tried starting it in several hours, when I first crank it over, it fires and sounds like it is about to start right away, then it just keeps cranking. If I stop cranking then start again right away, it doesn't sound like it will start, it just turns over. Maybe its getting flooded? Is 40 PSI TOO much fuel pressure?
