I have gas pressure and gas, the vacuum jumps from 0-6 during cranking at the brake booster line But I don’t have spark WHILE cranking, only when I stop cranking. Occasionally that spark will cause a little knock because it’s trying to fire up but it’s always too little too late.
Pardon my language but it sounds like my spark is too retarded?
I tried with and without tps hooked up. I tried without the purple wire hooked up to the I on starter solenoid that sends a message to ECM to retard the spark. Still the same. Uploaded a video of what happens exactly. She really wants to fire up:
