i had this problem on my 84 Chevy truck. the wire harness burnt up. so i went and got one from the junkyard. but from and older truck. the wire from the starter to the fuse box has resistance and when you activate the starter the voltage will drop to 8 volts which is to low for a HEI distributor. i installed a relay form the battery to the distributor and used the 8 volt line to activate the relay.
Could be your fuel pump or your ignition. Check your fuel line and crank the engine. If fuel comes out, check the ignition.
It will not run if you bypass the ignition module (no spark).
The problem will turn out to be either fuel delivery, ignition (spark) or compression. If all three exist in the proper amounts/timing... the engine HAS to run.
under the distributor cap. it is black plastic and has 2 small screws in it New answer: Sorry but that year did not use an ignition module. It use a crank senser and cam senser. If this is a S10 with the 4.3 L engine, it has an ignition module and it is attached to the bracket that also holds the ignition coil on the passenger side of the engine.
what year? and what size engine? crank sensors are in different locations based on year and engine size.
yes the 2.5L 4 cyl engine has the ignition module mounted to the back of the engine block,firewall side.the crank sensor is also there under the moduel and coils
That year did not use a crankshaft sensor. It used an ignition module.
a Chevy 350 crank is a Chevy 305 crank. they have the same stroke, 3.48 inches, and are interchangable. swapping between the two cranks does not change the engines displacement
The starter will crank the engine over but it won't run.
if the crank sensor is bad it does not tell the computer that the crank is turning it will not fire up the engine.
It is near the bottom of the timing belt in a Chevy. It is part of the ignition system.
