Re: No Spark...

First, why would you swap a 5.3 for a 5.3? And B, why would you do anything to a chevy truck? Just throw it away.










(My guess is a bad ground. Mitsu-style members have ground problems.)

It was a replacement motor because he ran through a puddle that was too deep and sucked in a whole bunch of water. (not smart) and blew the motor.
We swapped a 5.3 for a 5.3 because he needs a truck that runs and wanted a direct swap to avoid problems.

We found that it was actually the Crank Angle sensor wires had gotten pinched. so fixed it, and now the truck runs.

Haha looks like that didn't work out too well for him. Glad you figured it out though!
