yo fv,

Sorry, my PC burned last week and bought a new one the other day and Windows 8 is killing me.

Let us know how it works out & if mechanic can fins that self-test wire.

I had an MSD distributor in my rig when it's PIP (hall effect sensor) went out. However, in my case, the truck wouldn't start at all. I never bothered to check any of the fuel related components like you have because I noticed that the coil wouldn't even fire. 

Anyhow, I found a cheap new replacement at a local parts store, dropped it in, and it started right up. Sometime in the future, I'll replace this cheap one with something better, but I'll keep it as a spare.

Well its still there . The mechanic replaced the hall effect sw, all the injectors ,checked for vac leaks and tried replacing the TPS. Still no good !!!! He says the injector pulse ifrom the computer is there and then its gone. Thinks the computer I got is no good so he going to try putting the old on back . God please help me !!

ITS FIXED . Are you ready for this .....It was a ground from the computer!!!!!. It was hardly connected . So a ground cost me 1100 plus the 400 or 500 I spent in fuel pumps etc but its alive again . Hopefully this thread will save someone else some time and money

Thank you for all you help its was greatly appreciated
