Truck 89 BII.
Whats up:
- I rebuilt upper end of a used motor.
- Wiring harness worked fine with last motor, but old motor was overheated
- Cranks fine, but does not attempt start, no back firing, just hear pistons moving air and normal starting sounds
- I have 40psi at the fuel rail
- I have spark, but the spark is orange not blue
- I tried starter fluid in the throttle body, but no difference
- Pretty sure I am good with initial timing, and plug wires (new dist cap, roter and wires btw)
What do I look at next?
Any help appreciated.
