99 Yukon 5.7
Drove normally. 15k on a new GM engine. Ran awesome.
Parked for a while. Started up and filled the tank... came back a week later to start it again, just to run it as its not currently a daily driver...
DEAD battery, which is brand new... took it out and charged it up.
Slapped it in and it cranks fine, but no start
Pulled #1 plug and checked spark, had nice spark
I can hear the fuel pump run @ key on. But no start.
shot some juice into the TB while cranking and nothing at all.
So. There is a spark. BUT its been a while, not sure how rapidly it should be sparking, it seemed slow to me
Fuel... maybe. I cant find my pressure gauge, but it didnt even chug when shooting starting fluid in there
NO fuses out. FP relay should be good since I hear the pump run
Something else I noticed, while engine is cranking there is a ticking... a solenoid type noise, like what you might hear with a dead battery???? its that kind of sound... maybe not as loud (could just be drowned out by engine cranking)
Heres a video, still hard to hear the click
Any thoughts?
In the meantime Ill see about that fuel pressure gauge... are these supposed to be 40psi? cant remember.
