    OME and worth every penny.
    I was thinking it sure would be coincidental if the pump died while working on it but it did sound like a possible pump malfunction.

    It's usually something right where you were working last if no start. Might try checking pump pressure. May have had a nearly dead on when you started.

    Cylinder #5 Misfire - spark plugs are good, right?

    No blockages on the air box or MAF? I’ve heard of extraneous shop towels being left behind or air filters clogged.

    Billy 5100 front cranked up to fit 265/75/16 Grabber AT2’s (bought this way, soon to change)
    So I decided to disconnect the battery for a bit and see what happens. Reconnected it and tried to start. All other codes are gone, now I have
    P0351 Ignition coil A primary/secondary circuit


    When I hooked the coil packs up I noticed that cyl 1 coil plug didn’t click in nice and fucked with a bit, but figured fuck it, it worked before. I looked at it closer and it’s cracked in 2 spots and one of the pins was bent down, tried bending it back up but still doesn’t seat nicely. New coil pack on order at Napa, be here tomorrow.

    Just want to say thanks a million for all the suggestions and help. I’ve been on many many forums and you guys definitely are some of the most helpful bunch I’ve encountered!!!
