It's doing everything but running. Sounds like it really wants to start but won't. I checked and cleaned all the plugs and I'm getting spark and I'm getting fuel, and I scanned it with an obd scanner and it's not throwing any codes. By the way it's an 03 silverado w/ 4.3

Sedanman's shop is in Greenwood. And he can get it taken care of for you man. I know my shop is kinda far away. I totally understand. A tow would not be cheap!!!
Talk with Jeff (sedanman) and maybe he can help you out. He's a great guy and not to mention I take my cars there for allignments. And I don't trust ANYONE with my cars'. lol

Sounds like a cam or crank position sensor. I would try unplugging them one at a time and see if it will start.

Navy, Sucks to hear about the misfortionate incident. I hope things start looking up for you man. I don't know if you already got it fixed or not, But If I can be of any help, please don't hesitate to ask. I work on cars for a living so I don't mind working on things other than just F-Body's. I do a little bit of everything.
Either way, Best of luck and lmk when you get things back in order.
See Ya Around buddy!

it was in the shop when i posted it when i went back the prob had a bag with about 5 pounds of sugar in it that they pulled out i was pissed but at least that was the only thing they did but it needed new injectors which costed a decent amount

what headers and y and how much clearance do you have? stalled autos are fun. doesn't really take much at all to get one to run a number.

you miss took what I said, it's not that it's not worthy of a tune or it won't make big power it's that the optimal tune between the two combinations (esentially a head change) won't be much different so you won't need to retune it for good results. Instead save the money for more fun stuff.

Welp update we looked at one side of the head today. Trying to get the springs off and the retainors? were stuck and wouldnt come out. haha and after further look the number 5 cyld one of the springs was busted. Soooo i went ahead and just ordered the patriod gold dual springs with a .650 lift. All coming together i think the car will be really strong after its all said and done.
