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!!! -

Whew! I thought this was going to be a horrible experience, but it worked out. Hoping my NAPA part will work right off. -

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! -

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! -

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. -

That Black MJ is real purdy. Can I come over sometime and give her bath?

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. -

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? -

Great info. Thanks! -

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. -

Okay. When you say "everywhere" where is that? I've never looked for these parts before. -

Yeah, I guess NAPA's Proformer at $47 is my best bet. -

I don't know if it's a secret. I just can't find anything listed as "OEM". -

NC Tom replied to NC Tom's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
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? -

Okay, safe to assume it could be causing no-spark symptoms? Thank you. -
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.

No Start after fuel injector install
NC Tom replied to NC Tom's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Yes, I have checked them. Haven't used them yet. -

I ordered a simple digital meter today from Napa. I guess I'll get out Sat and start taking readings. -

NC Tom replied to NC Tom's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
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. -

NC Tom replied to NC Tom's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
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.
