Ok got the filter and oil changed seemed to go well until I went to start it. All it does is crank and crank. Any ideas on what I may have missed putting back together…

Not hearing fuel pump cycle….
Its been a while but from memory there is a wire that connects down by the filter to an oil pressure sensor. I believe the wire is grey and is in the way when changing the filter. The wire either gets disconnected intentionally or accidently and when this wire is disconnected the sled will only crank and not start. An easy one to miss.

Ok. Looks like I start over….thx
Lots of items get disturbed when doing an Apex oil and filter change so check the starter relay and wires as well. Its usually something simple thats a pain to find and fix.

Not having any luck finding anything. Sux to have to put it all back together just turn the key to see if the pump comes on

Good question...........I wish I knew. All the fuses were fine. I checked all plug connections and they were fine. The only thing I did do was on the left side of the battery box there two plugs mounted to the box. The large one was six pin but only five pins used. I saw some corrosion at the base so took it apart and cleaned it. Reapplied Dialectric grease. Put everything back together and when I turned the key I heard the fuel pump kick on. It then started immediately.
