 I was waiting to post about my new coach. It stalled in traffic and I cant get it started. Electromotive fuel injection. 20 psi fuel pressure from both tanks. Eveeything else looks good. Reseated all co nectors on computer. Motor spins acts like no spark or fuel.

If you have the Howell system, also check the MAP sensor. It will not run
if it fails.

Tell them it is to go to the closest >qualified< repair facility. That's Bounds. (Repair shop MUST have GMC motorhome barts both body and mechanical, and mechanic(s) experienced in working on the GMC motorhome). But, mile 113 in what state???

And if that's 113 on I 20 in Georgia, you're a mile from the Madison Ga exit. 45 miles from me, maybe 20 from Tony Bennett. What's your circumstance - solo, or passengers, pets, anybody wounded, etc? Whattaya need (aside from not having some numbnuts run into you)?

If it's in Texas, it's on the west side of Odessa. I know a GMCer there.

Yeah I shouldn't post while having a heatstroke. Johnny had it right, I am in Georgia. They towed me to a Campground here near Madison. My wife is with me, she banged her hip pretty good hen she was thrown across the coach from the impact and I started this epic adventure with a broken shoulder ( yeah I know) tomorrow morning I will engage with the insurance company to get the coach to Orlando and get us back to Navarre. At least my boss cleared me for the week to deal with this mess I wish I could figure out how to get a photo uploaded to the website, my tablet is not cooperating. I really apprciate all the input and offers for help, it means a lot. I know one thing for sure, I am going to become a freaking expert on the Electromotive Tec 3 port FI and distributor-less ignition system. The frustrating thing is I know it is something really simple causing the no start and I will feel like an idiot when the cause reveals itself...

Possibly a vapor lock.
I do't need anyone tell me vaporloc does not happen with EFI.

It can be electronic if your not getting ignition.
There is a very inexpensive tool one should keep in the coach, it is a
spark tester.
Undo a plug and connect it like a sparkplug and clip theother end to a
ground and crank.
Another tool that is great for ones with EFI, a Node Light.
Take the plug off the injector and plug in the Node light. if it does not
flash , no workie.
