I went in with my limited mechanical knowledge and replaced my crank shaft sensor, pickup plate, rotor and distributer cap. I am now getting code 11, I did accidentally jostle and potentially turned the rotor while getting the cap on so my question is did I throw it out of timing? The truck starts and idles seemingly fine. Revs up fine. I’m not sure where to go from here.

 

Clear the code, and drive it some more. If the truck starts, then the PCM is getting enough signal from the sensor to start the engine at least.

 

I might also be tempted to put the original crank sensor back in.

 

Is there a danger of throwing it out of timing if I moved the rotor on accident?

 

It is very unlikely your moving the rotor affected the timing. If it is a magnum the computer does the timing no matter where the distributor is turned the computer keep it timed., Turning the distributor only changes when the injector fires in the firing cycle.. If it is an LA motor that times normally the oil pump and distributor would have to be very loose to let itself be turned with the rotor far enough to get out of time.
The flat face on the pin the rotor fits over should prevent it from moving very far and the bottom of that pin being the oil pump it is unlikely you moved it very far. There is some normal play I am not sure what that is. the less the better though.

 

Awesome, after reading that I did go out and clear the codes then re ran them just to check and after the reset code 11 was gone, thinking back I did crank the truck over once when I changed the crank and the sensor wasn’t plugged in, which would explain why that code was stored
