I have seen many of these Vortec engines. Most of them will not start until you release the key from cranking. Is this normal? The current truck I am working on is very hard to start and will only fire one out of ten times. Once it is running it is good and strong with no codes. I have excellent spark while cranking, the fuel lockoff is energized. Does anyone have any technical information on this tier II Impco?

Fact of the week
The origin of "love" as the score zero in tennis is debated, but two main theories prevail. One suggests it's derived from the French word "l'oeuf" (egg) which resembles the shape of the number zero. The other proposes it's related to the Dutch word "lof" meaning "honour" as players might be playing for honour when scoreless.
