No smoke usually means no power to PCM or IDM. Check under dash fuse 30. If t is blown disconnect the fuel bowl heater connection (white connector) on back of fuel bowl and replace fuse.

Edit: Damn I'm slow. Just walked out to the garage and missed a bunch of posts.

Sorry guys im not good on abbreviations.

I changed my GPR because the old one was bad and it wouldn't start in like 40 degrees weather. The only thing i notice about that is i hear it buzzing for like a minute then it shuts off. Its reading out that its sending the volts its supposed to.

All my fuses are good. Idk how to test the little relays. I do have one fuse i cant test its got an aluminum housing on it. It looks way different from the rest.

Wait to start comes on. All fuses are good i checked that #30. I even unplugged the white clip and still didnt work. So i plugged it back in.

How could it run FINE all one day then you let it sit overnight and kapow! No more running.

Unplug the ICP sensor- front of the drivers side head and see if it will fire.

Are you getting a minimum of 10.5 volts while cranking? Less then that and the IDM will not operate the injector solenoids.

If you are getting less voltage then necessary lift either small control lead on the GPR so it is will not operate and recheck cranking voltage.

FIXED! Had to get a GREY CPS from advanced to get it going for now. I hear that you need a special CPS or it goes bad again. Can anyone tell me what im looking for for a good replacement?

Sometimes we forget about the simplest of things.

Good fix!

Common wisdom says that (if you can get a hold of one) the original black CPS is what allows the engine to run the smoothest, with the most accurate injection timing.

I believe both RiffRaff and Diesel O-rings have them in stock.
