crank no start - 1998 E-350 V-10 Triton Chinook Premier

Post by KillaJoules »

I am looking for advice on my crank no start problem because the forecast is for 16” of snow, so I'm not gonna get much else done over the next couple days.

98 E-350 V-10 Triton Chinook Premier 65,000 miles:

Intermittent hard start progressed to crank no start. 2 days ago threw codes P1131, P1132, P1151, all have since resolved but still crank no start. Runs perfect when it does start.

Things I have addressed:
Battery is 8 months old and tests good
Fuel pump fuse good
Fuel pump relay good
New air filter
New oil filter
New fuel filter
New starter
Tightened shift cable
Replaced neutral safety switch
New MAF
New CPS
New CKP
Spliced chewed up vapor canister wires

I have not tested the fuel pump because I have 45 gallons of gas in the tank and haven't found the test port yet.

Hi,
We have a 2001 Destiny with the E350 engine with the same problem! So frustrating. Had all systems you listed checked. All good. Seems to start fine when completely flat or nose slightly downhill.

Did you ever sort out the problem?

Thanks, Pam and Ben

Could it be that you have a slight crack in the main fuel line?

I have a 2000 Concourse, and I had my generator work sometimes, and then either die or not start at other times. Worked fine when it was pulled out and checked by Cummins. Worked fine for RV place in their shop, multiple times. I finally fought them and had them replace the fuel line, which they insisted was fine, because every once in a blue moon I'd smell a slight whiff of gas. That fixed it.

I have since had to replace multiple rubber lines, including the brakes (again, arguing with the repair shops a couple times). Our vehicles are getting older, and if you've been in very hot and/or cold areas, time does wear down rubber, even if its not real visible.

Please do post here when the issue is found and fixed - I may be getting your same problem one of these days!

Good luck,
Bob
