pulled my truck apart to trace what wires i used from the engine plug since the one i got was from a V6 truck and the colors were different.
assembled and test fired, still no joy. messed with many things for few hours- the green brolite just wont make spark.
i swapped my PCM and it started first try.
many more starts that night fine.
no start this morning again.
called around for a crank position sensor, nothing close. thinking it has to be that. awesome that its super buried and probably wont want to come out.
