No start, then started

Ok, well I drove the truck off and on all day,parked it for couple hours with the nose headed down a slight hill. Come out to go home, truck cranks no start. SG2 says 275 om ICP, so pull wires of truck starts just fine. Plug ICP up come home cut the truck off and starts like a dream....

Any ideas????

By pulling wires you mean unplugged ICP sensor? If so, was the connector oily?

That would worry me a little. Maybe you could park nose way down at home to check it. At least you wouldn't be stranded "somewhere". I guess it's also possible the ICP connector wasn't making a good connection and un plugging and plugging it back in helped.

I think he has a HPO Leak Eric

Better do the Full Deal for HPO Diagnostic

OPERATING VALUES
Just make shure the numbers are taken exactly like this
Truck in PARK OR NEUTRAL all times during test
ECT at 190* or close to And EOT at 185* or higher
A/C OFF
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#1-------KOEO=Key On Engine Off =record EACH sensor value and POST IT!!
#2-------Low Idel (truck idel on its own)=record EACH sensor value and POST IT!!
#3-------High Idel (2500RPM)=record EACH sensor value and POST IT!!



Do this for
ICP
ICPV
IPR%

So from those Numbers the ICP Sensor is Good


What happens when you unplug ICP Sensor and get it to start is the PCM Will use a Default ICP value.

So in your case I suspect the ICP Default value will turn on FICM and Fire injectors

Probably a Really small Leak or weak HPOP

Now Post IPR% at Idel if its any Higher thasn say 30% at Idel you have a Problem/Leak

10-4. I guess cranking up with ICP disconnect threw me off HPO leak. I think he was thinking of Marks post about the HPO resivour draining down.
