Dear Tom and Group,
It turns out, after having one to many shade tree idiots, think my truck is a carbureated
system, after I tell them its fuel injected, the 'tune up' damaged the Hall Effect Switch -
O'Reilly Part Number ME62 $94.99 + tax The distributor cap was not properly seated, and
the rotor 'damaged' or 'chewed up' this part.
A 'better' technician did test with the noid light, the Hall Effect Switch inside the distributor
system was damaged, and not letting current / electrical flow to start the injector. In short
it mechanicaly cranks, but electronically dead. :P I've ordered a new distributor with a lifetime
warranty. I hope this solve the issue for sure, if not I'll try to keep everyone posted if they are
interested...
Main thing for sure, the 1988 GMC S15 Distributor has lots of integrated teeny tiny parts inside
the distributor that can be damaged and also cause issues with starting (That is, when the distributor
cap, is not properly seated and snapped in, thus the rotor acts like a garbage disposal,
chopping up anything inside!) . Most of the micro parts are inside this particular distributor. For you Chevy
lovers who know what I'm talking about. I want to know how many components are inside this particular
distributor?
As soon as the distributor comes in, I can only hope it will solve the crank / non-start issue. I'll stick to
the older cars. :P "Mature Women and Mature Cars Need Love Too." :-)
If possible please let me know?
Shalom,
Michael D. Lucas
