  1. Yes. Display reads 0.080 mv I think?
  2. New cps installed. Still no start. Notched the cps I'm getting .08 volts. That's worse than the old one. It's a Napa part. I'm pulling my hair out!!!
  3. Whew! I thought this was going to be a horrible experience, but it worked out. Hoping my NAPA part will work right off.
  4. My Dr. likes to say. "As we age . . .", before the bad news hits. Here's the image that cornfused.. I did even notice the CPS, just the bell housing and the hole. 2+2=7 in my head. Ugh!
  5. I know! I really thought I read on your site to drill out the bell housing with a pic if the bell housing. I'll have to check that again. I must be having a serious senior moment!
  6. I thought you drilled out the bell housing?
  7. The tape is ready for deployment. I don't see how you get a drill up in there, so probably not. I'm actually kinda backing off the whole mod thing. After reading about all the people breaking their new CPS! I can't afford to keep buying those things.
  8. I plan to. Finally got the old one out! Whooooohoooo!!! Need to read about your mod to this too!
  9. So, even with 3-4' of extensions, I cannot get this mother out! I'll keep trying but if anyone has a method that worked for them please share. Thank you!!!
  10. That Black MJ is real purdy. Can I come over sometime and give her bath?
  11. Funny. I figured if I suggested alligator clips or something like that, I would be told that I wouldn't get a good reading unless I soldered it. Can't win.
  12. Since I have already ordered a CPS, is there any harm in bypassing the damaged connector and soldering the wires together to see what happens?
  13. Minuit, would a damaged pin really cause the voltage to read incorrectly? The probe is pushed down in. Doesn't seem like it would be an issue.
  14. Okay. When you say "everywhere" where is that? I've never looked for these parts before.
  15. Yeah, I guess NAPA's Proformer at $47 is my best bet.
  16. I don't know if it's a secret. I just can't find anything listed as "OEM".
  17. I can't find OEM. Where did you see them?
  18. Okay. Just being thorough here. Per @cruiser54 's Renix tips, I plugged in my meter, set to ACV, turned engine over and got .259. That means replace CPS correct?
  19. Okay, safe to assume it could be causing no-spark symptoms? Thank you.
  20. Starting to trouble-shoot my no-start issues and upon unplugging the CPS, I found this. Looks off to me. However, it's a Renix, so I don't know what the French were thinking.
  21. Yes, I have checked them. Haven't used them yet.
  22. I ordered a simple digital meter today from Napa. I guess I'll get out Sat and start taking readings.
  23. Jeeess! All I wanted to do was to change my fuel injectors and it's turned into a project of biblical proportions. The truck ran well before I started this thing. It would occasionally stall at a stoplight, but would start back up. I noticed an injector leaking, decided to change it and Blamo! Dead. I can't wrap my brain around why all these electronic things are popping up. I touched nothing but stuff around the rail. I'll start checking the things that you suggested. If I can figure out how to use my old analog multimeter.
  24. Yes, I have the valve. I've never had a big spray of fuel, but now, it just leaks out when pressed. I thought the fuel pump built pressure and that's why I changed it. I've tried starting fluid in the TB without success.
