I have a 1996 Chevy 1500 5.7L 350 Vortec It wont start, I have a jet performace programmer on it. I started it up in the morning and drove around and in the after noon too i shut it off and started it up a couple different times then when i came back home i decided to turn the programmer down alittle for fun after that is when it would not start up, I have fuel but no spark i had the ignition module tested and it was good i replaced the ignition coil but still will not start, im thinking the crankshaft sensor but when i plug the programmer back in it says service cpu i hoping its not the computer any help?

Have your injectors checked, I just went through the same thing... the only way way mine would start (same truck, Jet etc..)is with a blast of starting fluid... This injector assembly was recalled @ 10 year or 200,000 miles. I also found out late, it cost about $550.00 for the kit, and about $250.00 labor, because its inside the intake manifold...but my truck has never run so well...Good Luck
