what fire??? :confused:

1996 Ford F150 reg cab 302 auto

So after getting much help on this forum i am now officially stumped!

my engine was just cranking and nothing.... after chasing problems i figured out what all was bad/dead and quickly replaced and have driven around since.....until today when i actually insured it to get it inspected and it wont start!!!

things i have done:
new starter
new starter relay
new battery cables and onnections
new dizzy
new cap and rotor
battery tested fine
alt tested fine
cleaned MAF and throttle body
new MSD ignition and coil
brake cylinders (not engine related but hey)

Also with the keys in and turned enough i hear the pump and relay etc....but i am hearing something i never heard before and it is not all the time... it is a 'beeping' coming from the back of the block on the right side (looking from the front). i could not determine exactly where but it is back there....

so i am open to any suggestions that you may have to offer cause i am lost!!!

thanks again guys and gals

Troy

MSD box? Check your leads? Are the loops still solid? An eight cyl is supposed to have none of the loops cut on the side of the box. Getting spark? Firing order correct?

Cranking, but not firing, right? PIP?
