I realize it's frustrating but non-specific queries, in all caps no less, on these forums will usually get you silence. A bump with a trouble code and freeze frame data would've been more appropriate but I guess that's just me.

the reason for no replies is because no one knows. I posted a simular topic the other day. chevys are crap. mine would not start yesterday, then a few hours later it started and ran fine, now it wont start again. its got fuel, spark, and no codes. go figure. AND TO THE PEOPLE WHO ARE SO OFFENDED BY CAPS, YOU REALLY NEED TO GET A LIFE. THERES MORE PROBLEMS TO CRY ABOUT THEN CAPITAL LETTERS.

I'm not "OFFENDED BY CAPS," especially when used sparingly. Now, when you say "its got fuel, spark, and no codes," this is when it doesn't start? How did you check the fuel and spark?
