8v92 won't srart

[ronmarabito2002]

As others have alluded to off and on, you begin with the simple
things. If it is spinning fine, check your filters and make sure they
are full of fuel. You might have an air leak and it allows the
filters to drain down. Next, check for loose wires to the DDEC, if
that's what you have. I would bet that it is something simple. Look
at your oil pressure sending switch at the rear of the engine, facing
you when the hatch is open. It will be on the block just under where
your a/c compressor belts are running. Make sure that unit is not
damaged and the wire is intact. There is a relay in the front load
center after removing the cover on the front of the coach. It
controls the fuel shutoff valve. Without going out and removing mine,
I can't tell you which one it is, but I can if you need me to. Not
sure where to go from there, but I'm still betting that it's simple.

Oh yes, it could be the neutral switch or wiring on the tranny.
