ok, i think we are almost fixed here... finally got a badazz scan tool to check everything... it kept throwing an ICP sensor voltage too high code, so called Doug and asked what it could be.. he said its probly the ICP shorting out more or less causing all the computers to go haywire and not let the truck start. unplugger the sensor, and BAM! injectors buzzed, everything sounded fine! swapped out sensors with an older one i kept, but plugged it back in and back to things being crappy... it got dark on us and we felt like drinking instead of working on the truck, so i decided ill just swap my connector back to the old one i kept tomorow during the day and see what happens.. so ill let yall know what happens after a little crimping and connecting, again, tomorow!

It sounds like you rewired that thing wrong. Like you are sending 5 volts back to the PCM.

Could be raw fuel. You might have some extra problems.

well, i think its finally fixed! i got back under the hood tonight and tightened the clamp on the uppipes as tight as i could, fired the truck up and felt for leaks. to my surprise i had none! so romped on the pedal a little, and no smoke under the hood and no grey smoke out the back, only black.. took the truck out and man this thing is runnin nice! i loaded the tow tune and it runs really well with that tune also! im going to keep taking small trips here and there to make sure everything is good to go, and i plan on taking it on a longer roadtrip this weekend.. hopefully all is well! thanks to all you guys for the help and words of encouragement on this! especially Doug, lol, for puttin up with my retarded questions!

You don't even need to pull it out. I can send you the solenoid.
