Re: 1986 K1500 Starting Problem After Cleaning Q-Jet

Are you saying that the starter no longer cranks the engine, or that it cranks but doesnt fire? My suggestion is that if the starter is turning the engine over is to pull the fuel filter and make sure it is oriented correctly (small hole towards fuel line). Try to start again. If that fails, pull the carb and get some good carb cleaner and clean the interior passages well. Especially those between the main jets and the venturies.
