Just read a thread about van not starting. My 89 4.3 will not start. Has spark and fuel. Replaced dist with junk yard item as ceramic ring in original dist was very wobbly/loose inside dist cap. Engine is timed to compression stroke on #1 cyl. I do get spark at dist cap leads but engine will still not start. Van died originally while daughter was driving so exact symptoms at time of death unknown. She did say she heard a clicking noise followed by smoke from somewhere in engine area. Don't see any burnt wires. Puzzled at this point, about to sell for parts but if fix is possible truck has more life left, can't afford paid help at this time. Saw info about ecm but not sure how to locate and check. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
