that was not the problem primed the carb again it would run no gauges well no wonder it wont run... someone ripped your fuel injection out and stuck a carburetor on the manifold. .

ok sorry 318 auto it would not start one day it was like it had no gas primed the carb it would run so i put a new fuel pump on that was not the problem primed the carb again it would run no gauges would work drove to autozone they gave me a code i dont know what it was but they could not find it in the computer the dealership told me they could not help me without seeing the truck for a fee the pcm had a burnt pin so i bought a new pcm and replaced the pin on the wire it started up for about for a short while and i mean short. the pin was burnt again this wire goes to the injectors the alternator fuse box and the fuel pump i had the alternator checked out it was bad i have not replaced it yet and my truck is still apart my question is do you think the alternator could be what is blowing out my pcm .

my question is do you think the alternator could be what is blowing out my pcm anything is possible. how many expensive parts are you willing to replace before you have it looked at by a professional i know they are expensive but you may save yourself some money in the long run by having someone with the right test equipment go over the charging system. -- ken .
