Spooled_Starion Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 I had a dsm do this to me after I rebuilt it, ran great but after I parked it it wouldn't restart. Long story short, one of the capacitors in the ecu failed and leaked fluid onto the circuit board causing enough damage to cause a no start condition. Good luck!!
