RE: no fire...need help
I have a 93 5.2 and had the ground to the back side of the engine come loose. The ground bolts to the back side of the passenger side head. When this happened, the engine died. I looked in the Haynes manual and found the crank angle sensor. Unfortunately, there is no apparent test for it other than to replace it. The same holds true for the signal generator--sucks, I know, but if its in question. You might try pulling the plug on the SBEC, just make absolutely sure all power(Battery) is disconnected before you touch the connector to the computer. If you pull it while the battery is connected, the computer is fried. I had the same problem a while back and it turned out the be the computer on mine. If you look on pg 12-49 of the schematics, It shows a 8 volt input. Get a multi meter and have someone turn the engine over and see if you are getting the 8 volts to the crank angle sensor, on previous page, connector 24 is the reference pick up, make sure you have the 8 v at point 7 to the sensor , if no 8 volts, most likely the pcm is bad. Make sure you use the signal ground for the pcm at point 5.
If you have 8 volts going to the cas, try to start the engine and see if the 8 volts is being received at the reference point, if not the cas is bad.

Hope this helps
