Today while I was on lunch, I couldn't get my truck to restart. Luckily, it was parked infront of advance auto, but that didn't help much. I'm not getting fire. I'm pretty sure I'm getting fuel, and can't start it with starting fluid unless I unplug the ECM. I had something similar a little over a year ago and it turned out to be a bad ECM, so that's why I unplugged it this time.
Is there anything else it could be? I'm at a loss and can't really afford to be truck-less until tuesday evening. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks.

The text in bold is a sure sign the PCM is gone..again. Where did you get this one? Reman or straight from a JY?
Straight from a JY. I pulled & opened the PCM & everything looks ok to me. Could a capacitor fail and still look good? I didn't really say what happened right before though. I started the truck, then when I tried to take off, it died, then wouldn't restart.
