S-10 turns over but doesnt start?
Check to see if engine has fuel at carburetor and if it's
getting spark at the spark plugs. If both fuel and spark are good
then the problem could be with the timing settings or timing
belt/chain is worn out/broken.

How spark timing helps your top end?
The spark timing must conform to the increase in rpm's of the
engine. If the timing does not advance as the speed increases, the
spark will not happen at the correct time during the exhaust
stroke.

Why do you keep changing spark plugs?
You change plugs because the continual sparking erodes the
electrode, which slowly retards the ignition timing, which then
makes the engine run inefficiently,
Asked in Spark Plugs and Wires
Does the timing have to be checked when changing out the spark plugs on a 2001 Intrigue?
No. Ignition timing is totally controlled electronically, and
changing plugs will not have a direct effect. You can always check
it with a timing light if you want, but there's nothing to
adjust.

Why would 350 Chevy engine start backfiring?
that's funny because I have a 350 Chevy engine that's is doing
that as we speak.theres a few reasons it could be doing that. It
could be something as simple as getting carb cleaner and cleanin
your carb cause when it gets even a spec of dirt in there it can
cause it to backfire.if that doesnt work try changing the spark
plugs and if that doesnt work than you have a deeper problem which
would be that your timing is off which is what wrong with mine.

Why doesnt my 1988 2500 4x4 chev 350 not start change spark plugs rotor and cap?
An engine needs three things to run, fuel, timing, and spark.
Check spark first (it's easiest) pull a plug and crank the engine.
If spark isn't your problem check your fuel fiter, pump, etc...
Fuel is the next most likely and easiest to fix. Good luck!

Why is the Engine in my Ford truck not firing?
Check for a spark at the plugs. A lack of spark could be bad
spark plugs or coil or the timing system. It could also indicate an
anti-theft device not resetting or an engine management problem. If
the spark is good it could still be a timing fault although it is
more likely to be a fuel issue.

How do you time a Mazda 2200 R2 diesel engine?
Timing an engine requires that it have spark plugs, a diesel
engine only has glow plus, no timing required. Now, if the valve to
piston timing is off, you will need to replace the timing belt or
chain, aligning the timing marks then. Get a repair manual like a
Chilton's.
