Ok ive worked day and night for 3days and cant get this truck to start I have brand new spark plugs, my ditributor is gettin fire, Im gettin gas to the fuel rod or (fuel bar), all it does is turn over. It doesnt sound like its goin to fire at all. what else could it be. The injector are only 1500miles old. it an 94

wardriver

Did you try any starter fluid to rule out fuel as the problem?

i have the same issue but my truck sputtered and then died one day..it wont start on starting fluid..new plugs wires cap rotor....ignitor and coil tested fine.. if i remember correct its been about a month..

@baseballchamp157-
I know you've probably posted before on this, but you started a new thread so...
what do you mean by you've worked on it?
why were you working on it?
what have you done to it?

baseballchamp157

well I know that its gettin fuel because the hose from the fuel rod that goes to the efi shoots out fuel when you try to start the motor. My cylinders are gettin fuel though. I know this because my spark plugs are brand new and i stuck them in, tried to tart it and took them out and that were as dry as hard poop. plus you couldnt smell gas on them either. But my injector are almost brand new and were workin before my HG blew

baseballchamp157

I had a blown HG and it worped my head so I took it to a machine shop,yada yada... Ive been puttin it back together. Got it all back and now it wont start

Jay351

Do you have compression?

abecedarian

okay, I'm confused... you say your cylinders are getting fuel, and you know it because you installed new plugs and they are 'dry as hard poop'... so did you mean to say they "aren't" getting fuel? if they are getting fuel and are dry even though the engine won't start... that's where I'm confused.
but, if you meant "aren't getting fuel", I'd start looking at the injector wiring before I go anywhere else.

abecedarian

even with the timing radically wrong to the point of no start, the plugs should be wet, not dry, if fuel is getting in there.

dry plugs indicates no fuel.

abecedarian

so, though....

you replaced the head. did you index the cam, adjust the valves?
reconnect the myriad of plugs and such involved?

baseballchamp157

I meant the cylinders arent gettin fuel. yes i have compression. all I did with the head it took it to a machine hop and have them pressure test it and shave it. nothing was doen to the valves. I mean it does sound to me like the injector but theyre only 1500miles old. so they cant be bad can they?

abecedarian

not saying the injectors are bad, but maybe there's a problem in the wiring that triggers them...?

wardriver

Sounds like none of your injectors are opening at all...are you sure they are plugged in?

baseballchamp157

That could be, but they worked right before the HG blew. what could have changed? but ill try in tomorrow when i get off of work. how would i know?

baseballchamp157

yea, I made sure that they were pushed on right and the right ones for the right injector

abecedarian

just cause they used to work, doesn't mean they still work. wires and such get mucked with, particularly when removing and replacing a cylinder head.
a multimeter can help you trace down wiring issues.
also, most autoparts stores sell injector test lights which plug into the injector connector and 'blink'.

baseballchamp157

alright well im workin next to a napa and discount auto tomorrow so ill hae to pick one up. thanks. did know they even made somethin like that.

I just went through this same problem on my 86 4Runner 22RE, i had spark and fuel but no start, it turned out to be a bad solenoid resistor, replaced it and she started right up. power comes from the hot side of the ignition switch to the solenoid resistor, wich i guess lowers the voltage to the plus side of the injectors and then sends power through the injectors and to the computer. look in a factory service manual, it will explain it alot better than i can.

abecedarian

have a reference to the diagram in the FSM?

myyota

I used an 85 FSM to get the information, page 232 or FI 63 that will show the location of the part, page 235 or FI 66 will show the wiring diagram. hope it helps.
