truck wont start

yes (well unless someone switched em before i got it)

Hmmm ok. Well if you are sure that all of the grounds are hooked up and that there is no spark, next place to look would be the wiring to the coils. Let me get some screenshots up of the ignition schematics.

I would start by checking power, ground, and signal wires to the coil packs. If you're not getting spark, one of these will not be working correctly.

An 04 Denali never came with a 5.3. Are you sure all your ducks are in a row? I'll look for another similar topic to link...

The valve cover isn't a good ground, it floats completely on a bed of silicone, even the bolts holding it down have silicone or rubber isolators.

i tried grounding to the cylinder head ans no spark ill have to play with the ignition circuit tommorow

Oh, DUH! I should have known that :ugh2:

It just seemed like a similar problem.
