Fuel issues.

Got my engine back together and installed go to crank it and nothing. Finally get it to start up and it won't rev past 2300 rpm. Then it dies all of a sudden. Won start back up. Acts like it's not getting any fuel. Put gas in a bottle and pour a lil in to intake and it starts right up and will continue to run as long as I pour gas in. Pulled injectors and injectors r spraying and fuel was between 50-55psi can't remember. Don't know history of truck just got it and rebuilt the engine. Any advice would be helpful.

Tried to get codes with turning key on and off. Nothing is coming up.

OK was able to get over 3000rpms didn't try any more today. After it hit 3000rpm I let off gas and it died. I have been spraying gas in the intake and can keep the truck running. With out that it usually won't start. Once in a while it will kind of start and chug like only a couple of cylinders are running. Rechecked fuel pressure to and had about 58-60 psi. Also found one of the coil wires on number 4 broke. Got it fixed. Got a code reader today and it showed the code for number 4. It also showing p0700 which I know is for transmission. Also had one for IAC but I'm I'm pretty sure I know y so I'm not to worried about it right now unless I have to b. But most vehicles I've had the IAC won't affect anything but idling ability. Guess I need to check out the injectors and possibly the wiring for the injectors to at least make sure I'm getting power. Any other thoughts.

I know it has to be a fuel problem since I can spray gas in the intake and it run.

With truck off but key on run I'm getting 3.5 v on the injectors that going from injector to frame ground

 

[steven4177]

Nothing really

TPS? I can PM you a link that'll walk you through how to test it.

Already tested it. I have the service manual. It was water in the tank when I first tried to start it on Wednesday I thought maybe low on gas gauge was moving all around didn't know what was in there. So I put 5 gallons in it and still didn't start. Checked pressure and thought that it smelled weird but maybe it was me. So tonight I new it had to be the gas and pulled the tank and pumped everything out. I pulled 11 gallons out f the tank about 4-5 gallons is water. That was my issue all this time. I knew Wednesday that was it but just didn't want to believe it. Even then told my wife when she came out that it was the problem I just excused it. Y I don't know but I did. So now in kicking myself cause I knew the problem all this time and didn't check it. But know my next question is how did that much water get in the tank? And by the way after rebuilding the engine and finally being able to hear it run right and not with me trying to spray just the right amount of gas into it. It runs great sounds great. Money well spent buying this truck. But still gotta figure out how this much water got into the tank unless the guy I bought it from put it in there to **** me off.
