temp drops- '86 5kT no start....ideas?

[Pat Dooley]

If you smell fuel, its probably not the FI.
Seems like the fuel is there, just not being burned.

First thing to do is check SJM site for no start conditions.  I think it
goes something like check the three plug connector, the crank angle sensor,
ground strap to valve cover, etc.

If you still suspect FI, then spray some go juice down the trottle body and
see if will start.

That was my technique for starting my 5kt when the MM hose was split and I
didnt no what the hell the problen was.
