i have a 2005 silverado and it wont start. it will turn over but it seems like its not getting gas to run. i tryed to put starter fluid in it and that did not help, i am clueless now. i am working out of town and dont have much time to work on it. the truck has 150,000 miles on it and is 4.3L 4x4.if you guys have any ideas to help me it would be greatly appreciated thanks

 

pull a plug to see if it's getting any fire. the starter fluid should have made it at least start for a minute...hold the plug to a ground and have someone crank the motor... if no spark, check for a bad fuse.

 

On the flip side of the other suggestion, it could be that you are not getting gas to the engine. Replace fuel filter? As my buddies dad used to tell us. it's either gas or spark. If it doesn't start one of the two is missing.

Good luck!

 

thanks guys for the replys i had a spark, and like you said recondrill with the starter fluid in it it should have of ran for a minute but nothing..so i got it towed to the dealership to see whats wrong with it. i will reply when i find out whats going on with it. thanks again guys
