I am trying to help a friend with a 95 stock vette. He has an intermittent no start problem. I checked codes today and there is only one history code (H72) not related to the engine. today it started everytime and ran smooth. The other day I was listening as he held his phone to the car, it was turning over good, but would not start. He was getting a gas smell, but no start. This is an all stock LT1 with 77,000 miles.
Can this be caused by injector leak down? Any other suggestions welcome. |

Try flooring it. That will send a flood clear signal from the computer and shut off the injectors. If it fires, bet that at least one of the injectors is crap.

Andy, I had him hold the 'pedal to the metal' the other day and it made no difference. I was thinking exactly what you just said. I do think he didn't keep it cranking long enough though.

Was he getting spark? Was the engine hot or cold? Matthew |

Engine was cold. No idea about spark as I was listening via phone when it would not start. |

Hard to say then without more diagnostics. I'd check there if you get a chance.
