i need help real bad, i blew the head gasket on my 2.3 and cracked the head so i found another head and put it on i replaced the timing belt while i was that far now i have it all back together and i have no spark...i forgot to disconect the battery does that have and thing to do with it ....does the crank sensor have anything to do with spark ??? this is my only vehicle and i need it back quick so some body please help me

 

when you swapped the head back on did you make sure all the electrical connections are hooked up properly and the plug wires are run correctly? when you put the timing belt on did you time the engine correctly and the crank sensor isn't damaged right?

 

well my step dad bent up the tab comming off the back of the harmonic balencer and i think it might have messed it up ....what does the crank censor do ? besides that i did every thing else right its in time and evrythings hooked up back to the way it was before i started

 

yea, you will want to pull the hub back off and make sure the tabs are in the correct place, or better yet just grab another unbent hub from the junk yard and then make sure the crank sensor isn't damaged and if it is bolt another one and check the clearance to make sure the hub vanes dont hit the sensor. without this sensor functioning correctly you will never get spark from the coils.

 

thanks a bunch im picken them up tomorrow

 

let me know how it comes out and just be sure when you install the new sensor that the vanes in the hub dont hit it and the clearance is good.

 

everythings great the trucks runnin better then ever thanx for your help
