1998 Chevy will not start
My 1998 Chevy, K2500 has been hard to start for the past year. I do not drive it much so it has not been too much of an issue. Now it will not start. After it started for the first time at the start of the day, it would start easy the rest of the day. It turns over good but will not start. I do not like throwing parts but a coil was only 31.00 so I thought I would give that a try. I will try that after Church. Friday when I was trying to get it to start I could smell gas like it was flooded so that is when I stopped trying to start it.
Forgot to add, it is a 350 vortec. 174k miles.

Check fuel pressure. Those engines will not start with less than 55psi. Fuel pump would be the most likely fix. Possible fuel pressure regulator leaking as well.

If you are smelling fuel, you could have a rusted fuel line, they are known for that problem, as well as brake lines as they run together side by side along the frame in the nylon holders.

This is kind of like a thread stating a Cub won't start with no other information. Nothing to go on.
A list of possibilities looks like this: Low fuel pressure -Bad fuel pump -Faulty fuel pressure regulator -Plugged fuel filter -Hole in fuel hose under intake manifold -Faulty fuel injection "spider" -Leak if fuel line from tank to motor Vacuum leak -Upper intake gasket leaking/ or warped plastic intake. Could also be a leak at the grommet/o-ring on around the fuel injection "spider". Or a cracked/broken fitting on the PCV system. -Plugged or failed EGR valve. Timing issue -Bad/ worn distributor or drive gear -Worn camshaft gear -Worn timing chain Sensor failure -Crank sensor -TPS -MAP I have seen all these. Could even be a bad ignition switch. Or a power failure on the ignition circuit to the PCM. Lots and lots of possibilities..... you're going to have to narrow it down. I'd start with a fuel pressure check, as was already suggested. But, at 175K...... it could be a lot of things. |

Yes, but I see this all the time. Especially on C-list. It's a pretty common misspelling. Kind of like the people who have a Cummings motor. Sorry boys, there is no "g" in Cummins.

I fixed it. I think my iPad did the auto correct.

I have a fuel pressure gauge so I will test it this afternoon. I can hear the pump run but that does not mean it is enough.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
