Hello all,
Firstly thanks for all of them information everyone has shared on here, has been incredibly useful over the last couple of years. Just got around to joining.
I blew a rod t 234,000 and replaced the engine with a crate motor that came with new AC injectors.
After I got it installed and tried to start it up it only cranks over. No wait to start no fuel pump, gpr has no power with the key on.
I had it parked at a shop for a few weeks while I located the engine. When I picked it up the front driver side mud flap was sitting on the lf tire. Didn't think anything of it at the time also the gpr was under the hood with a broken stud and the aih relay was gone. They admitted to the relays. Anyway when I started trying to diagnose my no start problem. I looked at the idm and pcm.
The PCM had 2 bolts finger tight and a third on the floor boards, the idm was just hanging by the wires in the fender. They will not admit to having touched them at all and security cameras don't go back that far. I replaced the idm with a new one to see if that would change anything and it didnt. I have no blown fuses and the PCM gets warm when the key is on.
From my understanding if the PCM is not functioning the idm will not either to prevent the engine from flooding? Don't know if thats correct. Tomorrow I will test all of the fuses with a multi meter to see if the have power.
What would everyone suggest I do to be confident that I am correct these items have been stolen and replaced with bad parts? I obviously want to be as sure as I can before I drop the money on a new pcm (non returnable BTW idm is returnable)
Any help would be great.
