[SOLVED] '99 D1 - Cranks but wont start, has spark, sounds like the pump primes
There hasn't been a thread on this for a few month's so here goes::banghead:
Backstory:
On two occasions after in-town driving it would not start. I could hear the fuel pump prime. After several minutes of scratching my head it would start and run fine. There were several weeks between both incidents. With these exceptions it runs like a dream.
Symptoms:
2 month's later... Went out today and it cranks but wont start. I can hear the fuel pump when the key is in pos2. There appears to be no spark. No CEL and not throwing any codes.
I'm going to pull the CkPS tonight and pick up a replacement tomorrow. Anyone have any additional thoughts?
As an aside... I read about one troubleshooting technique by 'Disco Mike' who stated to turn the key to pos2, wait 5 seconds, turn off and repeat 4 times. On the 4th attempt, to actually start the vehicle. This appears to work for one individual but no one offered any explanation as to what the issue may be. Tried on my truck to no avail.
Thanks in advance!
