just like it says I got a reman cylinder head and changed all gaskets put everything back together and now wont start. So anybody have an idea as to what I address next? This is my sons car and I really want to get it going. Thanx in advance.
Could it be timing? camshaft position? Im pretty sure I got all the timing marks lined up. Distributor position? The search begins.

didn't you say you smelled fuel? so it's going somewhere.



Pull one injector then.


or here's an easy method (not the pro's way of doing it though.)

Pop your backseat out. (2 snaps; just pull it hard) Turn your key but not all the way. Did you hear the fuel pump buzzing?

NO=Fuelpump out
YES=next step

Locate your fuel filter (d/s by wheel well) and remove the line. let it leak, then replace. Start it a few times. Remove the line; Did it leak?

NO=Fuel Filter/fuel lines
YES=next step

you can unplug the SP wires, crank it a few times, then plug them back in, and crank some more. This will flood your engine with fuel and when you crank with the SP wires engaged then you'll burn the excess flooded fuel. It'll smell like fuel threw you're exhaust. (dont do it too much though, it's not good for the engine in excess) Did it smell like fuel?

NO=Rail/injectors
YES=N/P with fuel system.

don't completely rule out coincidental problems like a bad fuel pump things go wrong at the oddest of times I've found.


BEST ADVICE EVER!!!!!
