94 s10 4.3 2wd 5 speed its getting plenty of gas I can watch the injectors shooting gas plenty of gas the spark plugs are sparking when I tested with a screwdriver its a yellow spark it may be weak but I've shot it with starting fluid and it won't even hit it don't backfire nothing I'm going to get number 1 up tommrow to see if its jumped time but I'm 99% sure it hasn't a few weeks ago I had half tank gas and it acted up I drove it a week it always fixed up and idled good and only carried on when I got down 1/3 of the way on the pedal it would pop and miss when I pushed the pedal down but it cleared up I thought water in the gas cause I ran it empty and refilled and fine for 2 weeks I left home drove 10 miles or so it did this again but got to where it wouldn't even idle and died and nothing since please any help I've been laid off months over this coronavirus its my only vehicle I don't have a bunch of fancy tools and very little cash to spend

 

what'd ya find out about the timing?..not even a backfire is what's jumping out @ me..even out of time, it should cough or do something w/reliable starting fluid..my 2000 4.3 was doing what u described w/the 1/3 pedal stuff, yet would start up every time, and had fuel pressure...turned out to be a failing fuel pump..not familiar w/a '94 4.3 engine, but i cant even SEE the spider injectors w/o removing the intake manifold on my engine, but I saw gas whenever I disconn'd the fuel line @ the throttle body........problem for me was i'd have gas and pressure, but it wouldnt maintain the needed pressure once goin' down the road...but, to me, u not even gettin a cough points to fire, not fuel..keep us posted

 

dont leave us hanging...what's the progress, if any, of this???
