Re: Hmm won't start.

The first thing I do with an auto trans truck that won’d Do anything when I turn the key and I know the battery has juice is to hold the steering column collar with my left hand and wiggle it while turning the key to start.

After that it’s time to bust out the meter and check for proper voltage everywhere. If I am working on a truck that has an original style starter I’ll usually just order a late model gear reduction starter off Amazon because that’s a mod I will want at some point regardless.
