By the sound of your first tries . It was the starter . If not , then check the wires in the distributor cap (specifically the one to the starter or blaster coil) .
My dad had the same year truck when i was little, thing went for 300,000 before needing a new trans. only work we ever did to it. those engines will never die, enjoy it :D
@1337n00bkiller this truck has been giving my buddy more crap than any other vehicle ive ever seen!! the engines been good but at 420000 miles stuff goes bad i reckon haha
well it turned out to be a ground wire that was supposed to be connected to the valve cover but got connected somewhere else. it runs pretty good now but needs a new brake booster cuz the idles all funky when you push the brakes
Nope the fuel pump was good, that was one of the first things we checked. Turned out it was a ground wire that was supposed to be attached to the intake manifold... it runs great now!

I guess that means that the injectors were not getting enough juice because of the bad ground?

I would assume that was the case. I wasn't there when he got it running but that was how he explained it to me
