1993
Replaced the engine, hooked everything back up, now it won't start.
Engine cranks and tried to start once.
There is some kind of issue in the wiring I think but I am unsure on how to proceed.
Injectors would not fire despite fuel to the fuel rail so I called it a night. The next day I tried to trouble shoot and there was no fuel to the fuel rail, so I went to the relays.
If I wiggle the PCM power diode with the KOEO the relays click on and fuel goes to the fuel rail.
Wiggling just the fuse box does nothing so I don't think it is a short. But the diode is working, I dont know if its in spec because I can't find the specs, not even in the Ford service manuals, but voltage does go across it in one direction.
I have ordered an aftermarket diode because Ford no longer carries them (obsolete) and I have ordered a new PCM relay and I'm hoping this will correct the issue.
Is there anything else I should be looking at?
Thanks guys, I'd be lost with this truck without this forum!!!
