Truck cut off 1/4 mile from work in the snow. Checked the ignition coil. No spark. Went to the fuse box. Blown 15A fuse off the relay. Worked a full day and made it home with no problem. Thanks. This video was key to troubleshooting.
Hands down one of, if not best video I have seen. It was informative, enjoyable, easy to comprehend. For a minute or so, actually thought I was right there hands on training. Thank you, look forward to checking out other videos..
Let me be the first to say: Dude! You did this so beautifully. Explain showed pointed out…the works. Damn man, just thank you dude. You’re a CZcams hero 🤙🏽
This was a killer easy explanation step by step of how to diagnose a no spark issue with ease. Thank you. I fixed my issue.
Thank you, sitting in my truck and the same situation and you showed me my problem. Very much appreciated
Why didn't I watch this video 2 WEEKS ago???!!! I checked for spark and fuel but didn't think of distributor. Same symptoms so I am about to check that. I immediately subscribed and liked video. Thanks man!!!
Thank you so much for your video!! My GMC Sonoma 2003 started working again
This video literally saved our 96 GMC Sonoma! Thanks!!
I had the exact same problem! This video was very helpful!!
Got a 2000 Silverado 4.3. Been sitting for years motor was locked up got it free but no spark. Thanks for the video will try this in the morning
Did this work for you
Sir I want to thank you so much for you posting this video.My daughters truck was plagued with starting wont start.Followed your vid and now its fixed.Thank you again.God bless.
My S10 fought in WW2 and during hand-to-hand combat with a 109 ft field-mouse that had a really interesting personality and a family back home with multiple hanging plot points heavily reliant on whether or not their dad returns home from the war...
Hey dude you're the best man you got my car running right I did what you told me and I did it and that got it right
Exactly what my s10 is doing. I will try this fix.
Thanks!
Same 😭😭 Did u get it fixed?
Great video! Thanks for your help. Very helpful
The s10 is a great all around truck!
I like ur methods ty and ur quality mechanics
I love the explanations but my mom's 2004 Blazer is doing the same thing and I've replaced everything I could think of except the crankshaft sensor which dad is the only thing I haven't replaced yet other than the stuff you mentioned
great video and very well explained thank you bud keep up the good videos.
I appreciate the information. Thanks!
Thanks for the video. You solved my problem
You did great job explaining it. Hope that's my problem also
Awesome video - you really helped me out
I've definitely needed someone as knowledgeable as you. Brother if possible I have a question regarding a 2000 chevy truck 4.3 the exact same thing won't Start but on my end am not getting any sparks when checked.

You had me at "aha its whatever" lmaoo
Very helpful, great video!!

Gives me something to try. My Blazer it's like the key was just shut off roll and roll over kick back once and awhile just like this one did. I'll be giving this a try. Thank you very much.
Thank for the video👍🏼 help’s me
so much good information thank you
Thanks great video i have a question does the radiator fan always run even when the engine is cold
Thanks for your video it ready helps..
First let me say your video spot-on. But I've got a problem 97 S10 doing the exact same thing as your client in your video I changed my distributor and it was ten times worse than your clients but my S10 still will not start. I have no clue what my wife done to it
Un muy buen video, mil felicitaciones..
Thank you very helpful
I got shocked pretty hard doing this even tho I knew better 😂 then I get to the part where he says be careful not to get shocked 🤣🤣🤣
Hi, my 99 s-10 p/up 4.3 is doing the same thing. I checked to see if it was getting fuel thats ok, then I removed the spark plug wire from the coil and lots of spark even from pretty high above the coil and put the spark plug wire back on and the truck started right up. I played with the wires all around the coil to see if I could get some kind of reaction from the engine but it ran smooth as always. I am now worrying about it happening again at a bad time and get stuck somewhere. PS, I changed the coil,wires,cap& rotor and pvc valve. Cleaned M.A.F & throttle bodie & new fuel filter all at 5000 mile ago.

Mine was starting to fail and finally did. I hop this helps
Nice, no expert on CZcams. I believe you did great.👍
@7:30 you have the spark colors swapped. Blue/white spark is a sign of much better and hotter spark than orange or yellow.
Great diagnosis video. Helping a neighbor swap a fuel pump in his S10 next weekend and been watching some basic diag videos just for a refresh of the process.
Amazing video
great video
So after doing all that getting it TDC placing the distributor at the 6 sill not working buying another distributor same issue at this point should I be looking at the chain jumping a tooth ?🤔
Sweeeeet. Nice job fella. THANK YOU.
How would I know if it might be a battery? My wife drove home last night no problem and then went to drive again to goto the gas station and it wouldn’t start. Acted like the battery was low.
I tried starting it today. I can hear the fuel pump priming. I hooked up a jumper battery but it still wouldn’t start and basically drained the battery.
Should I take the battery to autozone and get it tested first? I’m wondering if a bad battery would cause the symptoms. If it was alternator, it should have at least jumped off
My blazer has the same problem. The bad thing is I have the intake already off to replace the fuel pressure regulator and spider injector 😢
That was a great and helpful video. Thanks so much!
2001 s10 4.3 was running fine then sometimes fuel pump wouldn't come on with key so i replaced ignition switch now fuel pump comes on. But still no start sometimes it will start but only runs 5-15 sec before it quits any thoughts on what to check i did also change coil pack
it starts on start fluid but will not stay running and if u push on the pedal while trying to start it it floods and will not fire for while afterwards just rolls over
thanks
My 96 4.3 was doing this other day. Found it to be fuel filter. Dead giveaway was fuel leaking from under driver door.
Cool bro thanks
Got a 97 c1500 its throwing 3 codes po420 po446 and po300 but I have changed all plugs wires cap and butten but it is still misfiring on a higher rpm...it runs and idles great otherwise!!! Any suggestions?? Im at a standstill..
I have a Chevy s10 it starts and everything I hear the humming sound for fuel pump. But it stalls while driving and on incline
I am having this same problem. I will let you know if these trouble shooting methods help me fix it.
Great video! I have a 97 blazer with the 4.3. It does the same thing as this was doing however it normally will fire off starting fluid. I haven't tested fuel pressure yet. But once I test pressure how do you determine if it's the injectors or the pump that would be bad?
This is what I need the answer too as well!
Well explained pal... Hope the channel grows. 👍
I got an 03 s10 I've changed distributor cap button timing chain throttle body position sensor crankshaft sensor ignitor coil ignition control module and a few other things but still won't start...any help?
Good job
Have an 02' Blazer ZR2 & drove it to the store & got back in & nothing! It would Crank but not start.
Luckily I took it to a Mechanic that knew about 4.3's & he checked the ECM & Coil.
He found that it was cracked immediately & replaced it & I was on my way..
No spark from coil area what should I do we changed head on s10
-97S10 pick up truck turns over cranks but it will not start until the - lights comes on I'm sawin what do you think the problem miss
My 01 sanoma sls ext cab 4by4 having this issue ignition control module ? It's freezing outside
What causes the battery on my Chevy s10 to go dead even when its not being driven?
I'm hoping this is my problem. Lot easier than testing coils n stuff
Had the same proplem fix in 20 min.had a acell cap and rotor ready at home.brakes went out front line leak new line but left hood cracked and got moister in cap four year old it was a replacement distribitor.it had a same quality cap as the one i replaced it with.219000 milles she's a runner i drive it to buy parts for my seabring.2002.the chevey trusk is a 1997 s10 4.3l x motor.
Got my S10 Chevrolet 1999 manual for 7 months first I go my Life don't nothing b it do to me 3 time oready the 7 months I got it driving oraung the house to store got 5 minutes to store's coming back trays to stared it like 3 time no want to stared way like 3 to 8 put the key put stared ogain don't the 7 mont got it do to me 3 time only any body know can be thank bro good vídeo 🔥
I have a Chevy S10 truck is doing the same thing to the think it's a 6.0 wonder is this and work on my truck if I tried this and see if I had to get any other parts I put a new alternator and a new battery in a velvet Saturday and then Sunday or Monday last week I talked you started and it's acting up the same way
No spark coming from the coil to the distributor what could be the problem
@7:30. Orange spark is weak and coil may be failing. Blue spark is strong and coil is okay. Color shows temperature of ionized air of the spark gap. Blue is hot, orange or yellow less hot. @9:48, rat droppings on distributor cap can mean chewed wires. Rotors have asymmetrical mounting lugs underneath to prevent installing 180* off.
It’s the ignition module my truck had the same thing
Great video!
Thanks!
Question for fellow truckers… can my 2001 s10 2.2 have this issue or is it only on the 4.3s?
After installing distributer now my 2001 gmc Sonoma will not start any ideas ?? And is there a diagram on what wires connect to the distributor ?
Excuse me can you let me know where is the cap and rotor I have the same problem with my truck Chevrolet S10 2001 4 Cilindros 5 speed we changed gas pump, spark plugs, cables, Thermo state, when I put some starting fluid started but take about 20 minutes when the motor is hat started easy.
My 2005 gmc envoy 110,000 had a missfire I bought 6new spark plugs started running a little better except the coils were bad so I went to go buy 2 coils as I was changing them with the car on the car turned off. Had to have the car towed and now it’s cranking but won’t start. Anybody have any idea?
My 97S10 pick up truck V6 doesn't have a few of the Box like other ones that I'm saying I don't know where the relays are the beatbox is on the left hand part of the dashboard I do not understand where are the relays
what if you get no spark from the ignition coil
My '91 S-10 4.3L will turn over but won't start. It's getting spark and fuel. Checked distributor cap. No cracks or moisture. What else could be the problem. Help! Please. Thank you.
Whey what's up I have the same issue with my 2002 chevy s10 ls 4.3 it cranks and no start I pulled the code p0335 I changed the fuel pump and fuel filter and now it's not starting
I have a 1996 GMC Jimmy 4.3 l vortec sometimes I have a starting I also replaced the fuel pump on my 1995 GMC Jimmy and it won't start sounds like I need a new distributor please let me know any troubleshooting I may have to do
Mine is doing the same but I changed my whole distributor what could it be
Thanks.
Mine still isn't starting, we followed all the steps. Any other ideas? We also changed the fuel pump and the crank shaft sensor.. we are at a loss of what to do
New tank, sum new lines, new filter, 4.3 will only start with a shot in the throttle body, then when that is gone, dies. There was fuel in the new filter. I hear the pump when i turn key. Spider injectors maybe?
Add on idea:for car owner diy'ers: check some spark plugs if badly worn, then also replace spark plug wires with as well. Put dab dielectric grease on each plug boot.
This is the extra care the dearlership mechanics do when working on thir own cars.
(Mo commisioned service mgr breathing down their neck to maximize profit by rushing the tech , while still overcharging the poor customer).
Parking brake on will avoid daytime lights going on and help recharge that nearly dead battery.
Where do I put that quick start fire my st10
Should have replaced the camshaft sensor while you had it apart
Ill let you know! Thank you!
I have watched several videos on 4.3 no start and have seen different ways to check for spark. Does nobody own a timing light anymore?
Timing lights are cool and what not but pulling a boot off of a spark plug, remove spark p. Plug spark p back in boot , rest electrode against exhaust manifold, turn ignition sticks , if you dont see spark there , start backtracking …same ol shit, different century.
Just installed new fuel pump /charcoal canister. Truck started right up drove for hour. Came home and won’t turn over.99 s10
Does anyone know if the crank timing mark is for TDC
Help got a 92 gmc sonoma it starts but runs really rough. Help
Is your pulley locked up when you did this???
Wat if the distributor moves a little like u said that's bad.....
Grasias
I have a question. I'm suspecting Cam sensor but I need verification. I have the exact same issue EXCEPT when I poured a bit of gas directly in the intake, it fired up and ran fine until the gas dried up. It had pressure in the fuel line, fuel pump was working, has spark to the spark plugs. I checked everything you did. Is it the cam sensor?
No that’s a fuel issue. Get a fuel pressure gauge and check the pressure on the fuel rail nipple
Hey bro would a code reader tell you that is the problem?
Question, might be a dumb one. But I have a 95 GMC Sonoma 4.3 sls. Misfire code 305 blah blah. Anyway for installing new cap and rotor, do I have to put everything on Tdc first before removing old cap and rotor and installing new one? Thanks. I have already checked spark plugs and wires. Installed new cranckshaft sensor,new EGR valve and all. Help!!!!
No you dont. Only if you remove the distributor
question where would you start if your brake lights stay on even if you unhook the brake switch and they go off if you pull the lt trn fuse rt trn fuse and then they go out any help would be great thanks
I've never had to deal with it on my Chevy, but a coworker had that issue, there is a switch under the pedal (or somewhere nearby) that when pushed in, it completes the circuit and allows the brake lights to power on, when released it closes the circuit so that the lights turn off. Turned out her switch was old and stuck open whether pressure to the pedal was applied or not. Was easy to replace and did the trick. I imagine you have the same issue
Mine would crank but not start every few days charged the battery kept trying ended up being fuel pump relay! Crank wont start new battery dead after a few days in a shop (fuel relay)
Customer states: starting fluid only strays the engine...no security light, it used to have security light before idk how it disappeared
