i had a similar problem with mine. i had 12 and 13 turned out (for me anyways) that the White wire going to the crank sensor was crushed. so i had to rewire that to the plug on top ( i think its a 6 wire grey plug on the head next to the fuel injector) i fixed it by rewiring that wire. hope you can find out your problem!

 

thanks ill make sure to see if any wires are frayed. did u have anything wierd going on with your engine while u had those two cels?

 

only like this when you first start it up? when its hot it runs fine, or all the time it runs like this? my thoughts are if its running like you have a race cam in it, your troubles are more than a sensor... does it have power when you drive it around? or it just seems dead? ill check our work computer when we open up this morning (boss is late, he thought monday morning was sunday morning, im sitting in my car, in front of my work) to see about setting the fcrank to TDC...

 

start up is like a race cam, after warmed up..car jerks and engine feels like getting no fuel at 2.5k rpm and over. thanks for checking for me though.

 

the crankposition sensor was working in spec...read 1,143 ohms cold which is in spec. next up is checking timing then camshaft posi sensor.

 

Check the cam sensor wiring - if the T-belt was done before and if the wires leading to the sensors aren't placed into their clips, the moving serpentine belt will slice them like a guillotine.

 

ah ok thanks, the tbelt looks like it was replaced so im going to look at the wires...is the cam sensor inside where the distributor cap is? thanks for the advice nthach!

 

huh? sheeesh i told u to check that previously licelsior...anyways keep us posted

 

The cam sensors are part of the distributor housings.

 

yea i know i told u that i was gonna check everything else too...

ok cool.
