93' BURB WILL NOT START - 11/13/2006 2:54:39 PM    UT1031   Posts: 5 Joined: 11/13/2006 Status: offline My 93 Burb died the other day on my wife and will not restart. The Fuel pump is working correctly. While turning it over, I had a buddy dump furel in the throttle body and it started and ran fine then stopped. I seems like it is either not getting fuel or the call for fuel is not happening. Any ideas??? TPS???? Thanks, Kelly Post #: 1

I had a similar issue, a few months after changing the fuel pump it would not start. Starting fluid would fire her right up though. It is very likely one or both of two places. First off your injectors come out pretty easy. Take them out have them checked at an auto parts store. My local Napa had a ultrasonic cleaning machine. This machine will check the spray pattern and clean them if they are dirty. Spot number two, under your distributors rotor there is a device that is the actual controller for the injectors. It uses the distributor as a referance pulse for firing the injectors. Mine went bad. when you turn over the motor is there fuel coming out the the injectors? if so its not the controller. If there is no fuel coming out it is either that controller or the fuel pressure regulator right behind the TB, or associated wiring. hope this helps and let me know if you get it fixed with this. If you still have no luck after checking these I will dig deeper.... good luck. ******When you take your TB apart, be careful not to drop the small parts down the intake!!!!! another mistake I made, ahh keep track of those small parts, there are many. **** (in reply to UT1031) Post #: 4

I will check the electrical, that was my forst guess as there is fuel waiting for a call to come. Do yo know the name of the control module? I may also have a spark issue?? distributor?? Sure appreciate your post and will try it out! Kelly (in reply to Tommygunz) Post #: 5

I definitely recommend NAPA, I know they take time to teach their people about parts, That and Oreilly, the bigger chain stores, if its not in their computer, they are lost. Good luck and let me know what happens. If you think you have a spark issue, it could be coming from the same module if I remember right.... check it out. If you have a Hayne or Chilton or something you can get that part name from there. _____________________________ 2007 Dodge Ram QC "Big Horn" 5.9 CTD 2005 Dodge Stratus (in reply to UT1031) Post #: 6

Thank you so much for all of your suggestions. After that was finished, I replaced the water pump and put new brakes/rotors on. The Burb runs like a dread again.
