We always tackled no-start issues with this formula./

FIVEM!

F=fuel & on that car you need 100psi of fuel pressure
I= ignition & you should have enough spark to jump a spark plug with a gap of 0.1"
V=vacuum & you should have 150lbs of compression
E=electrical & you want to make sure that the OVPR is powering up the computer
M= mechanical & of course make sure that the timing chain is intact & cams are in time


OVPR= over voltage protection relay
