Crank Sensor

[shodup]

So I replaced the old worn crank sensor that was causing problems when the car was running after about 20 mins. I reset the timing at the top and went to jump start it and it would not start. It turned over but would not start under its own power and I'm at a complete loss for words. I have checked all the little odds and ends and I can't find anything.


Any Ideas???

DIS bolted in? And, is the crossover tube bolted up tight? This caused a no-start on mine when I did it.

It was all bolted up I just didnt have the timing belt cover on... I know im missing something I just cant figure out what

Intake manifold grounded at the back left?

Intake manafold was never detached only the end where the DIS module is

That's the most important part. It MUST be grounded.

 

[93rev2sev]

meaning the bolt that holds it to the bracket in the back NEEDS to be tight.

Where does it ground?

 

[93rev2sev]

The bottom 2 holes on the DIS are the only connection the DIS has to ground. Screwing the DIS in to the crossover, grounds it to the crossover. Bolting the crossover to the rear tank bracket grounds it to the rear tank. The rear tank is then bolted to the grounding strap, the gounding strap is bolted to the chassis, the chassis is bolted to the negative battery terminal.

If you don't bolt the crossover tube to the bracket...the DIS isn't grounded.

AAAHHH I only lightly hand tightened the bolts down on the crossover... That might have been the problem
(edit)
Wait i did use a rachet to tighten them down so the DIS WAS grounded

Did you set the correct gap on the new CPK(aka CPS)? Its .030"
