Cranks but doesn't fire! - 05/10/24 03:34 AM
79' Dodge B300 Extended Cargo Van
LA360 V8 2bbl
A727 transmission
I'm back unfortunately!
I drove my van over to a neighbors this morning, started just fine and ran great on the way there but it took longer than usual to start again before heading back home but it eventually fired up and ran great on the way home! I got home and had it parked for a few hours and I went out there to move it and now it won't start at all! It cranks really well but no ignition! Yes it has fuel and I took the air cleaner off to see the fuel squirt into the barrels...
If some of you remember me I was here a few weeks ago dealing with an overcharging issue which I bypassed and still running the bypass wire! I haven't had time to figure out the cause of the overcharging issue yet, not sure if it's related to the no start problem I'm having now but thought I'd mention it!
The last electrical issue I noticed with it was the backup lights weren't coming on! I'm not certain but it's the neutral safety switch that engages the backup lights when put in reverse correct? Could a bad neutral safety switch cause it not to start?
