If it was under the hood - you could have a short somewhere that is causing this or it's your relay. If you're battery checks out good - but nothing take a look for this box under the hood. It shouldn't be hard to find. If you follow the main wiring harness coming from the firewall back towards the front of the car you'll see it. Usually positioned middle above one of the fenders to the back towards the passenger compartment is where they usually put them. This junction is the relay center. It controls the fuel pump, turn signals, wipers, starter relay, you name it. You'll have a smaller fuse panel inside the passenger compartment - this is the main hub before that one. If you take a look at it - try to see if the box is burnt or the relays are burnt. You'll definitely be able to see. If you give the immediate area of that box a good smell and it's burnt - you can't miss it.

Did you have a hard start or no start problem recently ? If you did you were dumping fuel into engine with no spark, which ends up sitting on top of the piston & eventually running down into the oil pan. If not, my guess is you have an injector(s) leaking down while sitting. Check your PCV is clean & working as well.

SOURCE: My Dodge 1985 d150 won't start. New starte,

if you hear a loud click from starter it could be the motor contacts in the starter have gone bad. you will have to remove starter and have it repaired or replaced. check again to make sure that the battery is charged up on truck. also check for a loose ground wire to starter or engine block.

There is a panel on the passengers side of the car, I pulled the fuse used for OnStar because I dont use it. I didn see any labling on mine but it was the fuse located second from the top on the left side, but you have to be looking at it side ways because of the way the fuse box is orientated.
And then put it in the socket all the way to the right second from the bottom, again looking at it sideways. NOTE: My car is a 2006 Malibu LT

1989 dodge d150. truck will run fine for about 15 minutes then dies. I changed the fuel filter and it still dies. both injectors seem to be pumping fuel. so any ideas.

If you are sure right after the engine dies you have fuel I would think it was the coil going bad see if yiou have spark right after it dies. If you have spark squirt gas into the throuttle body and see if it starts

According to this chart from AutoZone.com, it's 10 degrees, but I read somewhere else that there is no adjustment for this engine--computer controlled.
