I have a similar problem, although it is intermittent. I haven't replaced any parts as truck always starts eventually. Had it towed to my dealer once and it started as soon as it was let down from the tow truck. Frigging frustrating.
I hope someone on the group has a brilliant idea. :-)

I'd start by checking all my grounds, and nuking out the harness for shorts.
frustrating.

Check the ECM fuses. One of them controls the fuel pump and ECM, if it's out you have no fuel and no spark...

OK, sounds good. Since I'm not a mechanic, and don't want to pay $50.00 an hour to have it checked out. Where are the grounds that need to be checked? Is there a ground at the gas tank that will require dropping the tank? I have a Chilton's manual but it doesn't give locations for grounds. I've checked the obvious grounds but where might there be grounds in out of the way places? ( '89 S15 4.3 auto. 4x4).
TIA

That's kinda like saying, "I need to get to the Wal Mart downtown, but I'm blind and too cheap to call a taxi. Will someone give me directions."

Hey, I'm just looking for some help. I'm more mechanically reclined, than inclined. :-)
I can identify a ground wire, but wanted to know where there might be some in out of the way places. As I stated in my previous post, I've checked all I found.
