My truck, a chevy 1987 S -10 V6 w/ fuel injection the past few days has been giving me problems starting.
I put new plugs, wires, PCV valve about a month & 1/2 ago,.
recently the truck at times will turn over like there is no spark or gas. I had someone look in the carborater when I turned it over and he said there was gas?
I pulled the Distributer off cleaned the contacts w/ a file along w/ the rotor. This seeemed to help for about a day and a half so I dont know if this was some type of fluke.
When it does not start I open the hood and take off the air cleaner , this seems to help?
The problem seems to be worse when the engine is warm.
I just drove 12 miles home today, shut it off,... and tried to restart,... no go.
Yesterday I did the same thing and when I tried restarting,.... it started,.... the only difference was I was not on the highway yesterday I took all back roads home?
The engine has 100,000 miles but runs good burns no oil.
When it starts it runs good?
Although every once in a while when leaving parking lot after starting the truck will almost conk out, so I give it a good amount of gas. This does not last too long once I rev the engine a bit.
Thursday I put in a new cap and rotor & the problem went away. Today, rainy Sunday, 3 days later the problem is back. Today I can not as of yet even get it to start
