I have a 94 Chevy c1500. There is a junction block on the driver's side fender well that the HEI distributor wire runs to and I believe the aftermarket Holley fuel pump runs to. I was told it should be hot at start where is the wire that makes it hot located and I'm not sure if this truck should even have a junction block on the fender well. I'm stumped please help.

SOURCE: 1988 F150 wont start

Check the positive side of the battery for a burnt fusible link. It looks like a wire but when it's over loaded if burns in half. Look at the pos. battery side of the starter solonoid you'll see a few of them there. Check your ignition module as well. This controls the coil and distributor and is mounted to the driver side inner fender.

SOURCE: fuel pump relay for a 1994 Chevy Truck WT1500

The Fuel Pump Relay is located in the Glove Box under a little cover on the upper left side. The Fuel Control Relay is the left relay and The Fuel Pump Relay is the right. To test these relays, swap them and then try to start the vehicle, or blow the horn. If the horn blows then use that relay for the pump and you may at least drive the vehicle where needed! If the vehicle starts, then replace them as a pair.

SOURCE: I have a 1994 chevy k1500 preignition knock

open the intake manifold by removing the air cleaner and or hose look on the back side of the plate to see if there is varnish and gum if there is you need to do a top engine clean, You must understand that running that kind of gas will cause varnish and carbon buildup on the pistons and valves. This causes the knock sensor to not to be able to adjust for compression change. It can only advance the timing 50% once the carbon build up is to much it will start knocking. If you want to receive instructions on how to fix this then rate me post a comment and I will give you the two page answer on how to do this. Unless you want to keep buying parts. your choice. I will no longer post it here as I see some think they can just take my answers and copy them.

car battery is weak
ICM bad?
bank 1 only? there is bank devices here, at all
just 1 coil the dizzy cam just spins the rotor and picks 1 to 8.
if not the cap is bad or the timing is way off. or wire sets wired wrong. order
bank 1 is left bank 1,3,5,7


fact 1 one step one is set the spark gap to spec (this engine/year)
never run out of box lugs gaped at factory that is 0.045
the HEI gap spec 5.0L is 0.060": huge. that is.
almost 2 times 1995 gap. HEI is powerful.

you did not mess up the firing order ,did you?

to do all that. we , remove he cap
put on the new cap first
then remove 1 wire and replace in the correct order 1by1 correct to the new cap from old
not doing it wrong. end to end. 1 to 1, 2 to 2, etc.
then do plugs last. 1 by 1, never all at once

How do i install a tach in my 94 cavalier rs 2.2L 4-cylinder? I cant find wire the singal wire goes and i can find any info about it.

Didn't find the right year, but reasonably sure the '94 Chevy HEI is nearly identical to following...

https://www.autozone.com/repairguides/GM-Firebird-1967-1981-Repair-Guide/High-Energy-Ignition-hei-System/Description-and-Operation/_/P-0900c15280080b4a

You will need the connector/wire that fits into the HEI distributor. It would normally be included in the tach install kit that I assume you don't have.

Need firing order for 94 gmc 350 pu diagram dist and wires if possible thanks

For GMC 350 the firing order is 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2.

The distributor rotor turns clockwise when viewed from above, so the spark plug wires would be installed in the same order as the firing order, beginning with #1.

To find which contact in side the distributor cap that the rotor is "pointing" to, use a ratchet on the center bolt of the crankshaft and turn the engine over by hand (clockwise direction only as viewed from the front of the engine looking towards the firewall) until the timing mark on the harmonic balancer aligns with the "0" mark on the timing cover (may also be indicated by a deep "V" cut into the timing mark indicator attached to the timing cover).

Normally, the rotor will either be "pointing" towards the firewall with a bit more emphasis towards the driver's side cylinder bank, or it will be pointing towards the front of the passenger side front fender. If it is pointing towards the fender, turn the engine over again until the timing marks align and the rotor should be pointing towards the firewall as described above.

Find the closest terminal in the distributor cap that matches the rotor's alignment and install the #1 wire. The distributor cap and then be installed with the remaining wires installed around it clockwise from #1 using the firing order.

Some turning of the distributor may be necessary to get the engine statred. Once it does start, use a timing light to set the timing.

Hope helps (remember rated this).

Wire position for 75 Chevy 350 HEI on the

Order is 18436572. Put the timing mark on the crank at 0 and the rotor should be pointing either to the firewall or the front of the engine. If at the wall, turn the crank one more time and it is now pointing at the #1 wire position on the distributor.
left side cylinders are 1357 right, 2468 wire order is in the direction the rotor turns when cranking.

Wiring an hei distributor

You shouldn't need a spark box because thee coil is located in the dist. cap. You need to run a 12v switched power source to the side of the dist. cap that is marked dist. if it isn't maked it is the term. that is on the front right of the conector pad. the one on the left is for hooking up a tach.

Chevy 350 no spark I have changed the coil, cap, and rotor. Still no spark. I also changed the plugs and wires about 3 months ago

Check the distributor module (ICM), it may have gone bad and needs to be replaced. It's around $40.00 and it's under the rotor in the distributor assembly. Check the red lead wire to the HEI for voltage, there should be 12 volts. It common for the ICM to fail on the HEI system and if you go to Auto Zone, they can give you the step by step instructions to replace the ICM. Good luck and keep me posted, be glad to help.
