Discussion:
No spark

Hi and thanks in advance for any help! I replaced a water pump and when I finished up the lift wouldn't start again. First thing I did was check timing to make sure it was wrong. It was right by the marks and piston on tdc rotor pointing at number 1 plug wire. Feel pretty confident that's it's all correct. Next I check to see if I was getting any spark to the plugs and I didn't. Wiggles wires, check plugs to coil and crank sensor and everything look good. It did start once at this point but only once. Thinking it was a bad wire in the harness I Ohm the wires in harness and everything checked out. Replaced crank sensor and coil and still nothing. Could it be in the exam? Has anyone ran across this?

Ok after emailing swoop, here's what happen. When removing/replacing crank sensor it has to be adjusted from.32-.37. There's really no adjustment on it as the bracket bolts to front cover and the sensor bolts in it. I had to drill the bracket to be able to move it enough to get.32. After doing so it now fires. Still having problems but think they are unrelated.
