Default RE: 01 cranks won't start

Thanks for looking. Those shots are somewhat old. That computer is no longer in there. I am using a Cappuccino GX1 PC to supply the tunes now.

This works much better. Not only is it a smaller package, I also got a 12v DC converter, so I no longer have to run an AC>DC inverter. The white game controller is there to control Winamp. I also have a small keyboard, and a 7 inch LCD installed. (not pictured) At one point I had 4 subs occupying all the trunk space. But I have cut it back since then. Gas is too expensive, and my rear struts are suffering from hauling too much weight.

my guess would be the fuel pressure sending unit, it's around $70.00 and easy to install. it will go bad eventually so you midas well start there !

It could be an oil sending unit as well. Some of the GM's the fuel pump its tied into the oil sender.
If this sensor goes out it will not allow the fuel pump to turn on. The sender allows oil to start pumping before the cars starts.

To check to see if its a fuel related problem, take a can of injector cleaner and spray it into the intake while someone else cranks the engine. If it fires up and dies then you have a fuel issue.
