Well, we blew another Saturday trying to get the truck running. We checked all the fuel lines, tested every plug wire, and everything else mentioned except checking the timing chain (too much de-construction involved for a cold Saturday). I'm afraid that since we've eliminated everything else, that's it.
Boo.
Going to have it TOWED to a GARAGE for work by a PROFESSIONAL!!!! What a revolting development. I'll post whatever the smart guys do to get me back on the road . . .
