Guys,

A new problem popped up. I put the key in and turned it, the only response
was a rapid clicking noise. I raised the hood to undo the ground cable and the noise was coming from some of the fuel injectors, I am pretty sure. I had switch the key off but the noise continued.

Lifted the battery cable, noise stopped, reset the battery cable and tried the key again. Same response. Lifted the battery cable and stopped for the day.

Any leads?

 

Yeah wow thats strange. It almost sounds like electrical system is pulsating the injectors. Try it with a multimeter on an injector wire.

 

This morning, I checked all the grounds visually, all looked good, hooked up battery negative cable, it fired right up and ran smoothBUT TACH IS DEAD!!!

My first time ever that the tach has acted up. Anyone got any ideas what could cause tach to stay at 0?

 

Bad alternator would do that.

 

After posting, I did a search and found this:

So I called the local recycler. They just got a DI in and will be pulling the alternator for me, they will call me when it is available.

Thanks to all for your help.
