Wont start after cylinder head work

Asked by Nicholas Jan 04, 2016 at 06:42 PM about the 2005 Dodge RAM 1500 SLT Quad Cab LB RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I found out after buying it that it had warped heads.
Got them machined reinstalled. Was running but
crapped out after starting it 2 times. It has good
spark, no air restriction, and fuel pressure. I tested
compression, but im not trusting the readings of
90 psi on a dealer tested good cylinder. Last i
played with it, removed fuel pump fuse and
cylinder 1 spark for compression test again started
right up like normal no funky noises.
