a few questions
1993 5.8
how can i test to see if all cylinders are getting sparked....for example..could i take the spark plug wire off the spark plug and insert another spark plug start the truck and see if it is sparking or would that mess something up...
When i have my air on it doesnt matter hot or cold it blows fine, but when i go to turn it off it wont completely stop. I can turn the dial to hot or cold when the blower should be off and i can feel it still coming out and it changes as i turn the dial. It isnt very powerful but its definataly noticable...any ideas
Also my cruise control went out and is not working...anyhelp on where to start.....

1. My thirty something dollar digital code reader has a feature that can test each cylinder to see if one is not balanced with the others. Crossing up the plug wires is no a good idea.
2. My heater does the exact same thing. On the highway, turn fan off, still get a little air flow and temp control. However, I thiink the compressor stops.
3. My seat belt light started flashing a 3-2 code. A few months later the cruise control quit. Then a few months later the horn quit. Replacing the clock spring in the steering wheel fixed them all. Remember the cruise control has a recall for later model and now I know my '94 was included. Cruise control pressure switch on the master cylinder would ignite brake fluid even when no one was around and was burning homes.
