    Ok. For us following, we have pretty well ruled out fuel problems.we assume ..fuel is passing injectors but motor only runs on either. Check on ecm power revealed ecm not grounded by harness. Harness changed as much as possible to original. Possibly now somebody will be able to find the ecm fuse if they want to look for it. However motor will still crank but not start. And run 9nly on either but I am done with the either.

    I check SRS sensor but I find 132 ohms. I check continuity on wires. Have continuity. Put sensor in plug. Test from vehicle interface harness. Get like 124 ohms. I found a trouble shooting article to learn this. The article says something about checking gap between sensor and gear, but I don't see how to do this.

    Since you are having electrical problems I will share my experience with you. May help, may not. Underneath my battery box which is only visible when crawling underneath the rig there is a fuseable link going to my ECM. Corrosion caused 2 of the 3 fuses to loose connection and when I hit a bump going down the road it died completely. My issue doesn’t sound like yours, but something like this could be your ground issue. I also found a ground jumper wire from one battery to the next had rubbed thru to the wire on the bottom side. It often doesn’t take much to cause electrical issues to surface.
