Help ASAP Again Please.

Engine started up fine this morning and will not start now. I'm stuck... .the car sat all day... 65 Deg.

The 97 E 350 Diesel cranks well with lots off battery juice, but it will not turn over.

the odd thing is I'm not seeing my "wait to start light" turn on.

There is a little fuel in my vally of the engin.. not mutch.

I could use lots of help. Stuck ..

Thanks

If someone could call me for help That would be Great.


just now... odd thing I took Both Battery Grounds off and it started.. the stalled..
I still do not see my "wait to start" light come on..

I have notice this rig yesterday stalled twice while idealling..


Oil gauge comes up after cranking...Battery gauge look normal.

THanks

I bet your fuel bowl heater is gone. Check your fuses. Try unplugging the fuel bowl heater, replace the fuse, and then try starting it.

Check fuse #22 under the hood. Also, do you have any tach movement when you crank? If you don't then it might be the CPS.

I don't know where they are on a van , but check the small relay that powers the PCM . It may be loose or bad . you can use the horn relay for a test ...
