Cat Lift Trucks (& Caterpillar) P5000:
won'the start

I amworking on a CAT P5000 it was running and just quit , it was giving me a code E-28 so I replaced the cam and crank position sensors then it started giving me a E-27 code I checked the plugs at the sensors and found a bent terminal I corrected that and the E-27 code went away , it tries to run but won't I checked the harness from the individual sensors to where it plugs into the main engine harness and that checks out ok so now I don't know what to do next.

It will start and run if you use starting fluid, but if you shut it off you will have to use starting fluid to get it started again , I am running out of ideas even had a CAT (Wiese) tech stumped.
