[V8] V8 not starting

[Ed Kellock]

Did the engine actually stall at the bend in the road, or merely hiccup?

Thanks for ur help. I ll try to tell the exact story. While driving in
residential area, I slowed down at a bend when first time the car stalled
and when i reached home and engine was idling it stalled and stopped. Now I
crank the engine it starts after very long ignition but when i remove my
foot from gas pedal it stops immediately.

I can't think of any way an issue with the TPS would cause a no-start.  

Did the car stall on you or did it just not want to start the next time
after a routine shutdown?

The TPS is near the very front of the engine.  If you look at the air
cleaner cover and then just in front of it is the flat shelf where one might
set, say a beer, or use as a small work table to do some light soldering,
next going back forward toward you would be the throttle valve assembly with
the Intake Air Temp Sensor pointing off to your left (toward the passenger
side of the car).  The next thing further forward toward you and down below
the IATS and also with the connector pointed left (passenger side) is a
small balck box with a large connector.  That is the TPS.

You might try simply disconnecting and reconnecting the connector to clean
the contacts.  

It is possible to adjust the TPS.  It shouldn't be necessary unless this
part was recently removed and/or installed.  I've never found one to be
loose, but it's possible.  It seems that the two screws that hold the TPS
are most often nearly impossible to get loose.  They are phillips head
screws and access is a PITA.  I usually use some pliers to get them loose,
then a phillips on them from there.  On one car, I replaced them with small
bolts with a 8mm or so head.

No it doesn't start even when it is cold and code for flywheel sensor is
2111 
but i got 2121.Which is most likely related to TPS. How to check or replace
the 
TPS?If links for a picture of these steps can be posted, it would be a great

help.

If it restarts after things cool down you have a bad flywheel sender. 
Check the archives, there's plenty in there about it.

BCNU,
Don't ever take a fence down until you know the reason it was put up.
