Just got finished replacing the plenum gasket. Took my time and followed proper torque sequencing and torque specs on everything. Got everything back together with no problems except now it will not start. It turns over great. Is getting fuel at the fuel rail. My only thought is that I may have damaged a sensor on the tb when I cleaned it. Used Gumout to get deposits off the air passage and off the bottom and top surfaces. I know I got the sensors wet, but do not know if this might be the cause. Coil wires are firmly in place. Still won't start even with gas pedal to floor. I stumped???

 

check to see if your getting spark, i would start there.

 

It seems as if I'm not getting power to the coil. I know wh/ wire is the power wire at the connector, but how do I back check this wire? Doesn't appear that it is getting power to the plug end. Where is the other end, so I can check for resistance?

 

did you put the distributor cap on right and remember to put the rotor on? the coil wires goes to the coil from the middle point on the distributor. did you remember to put the rotor back on?

 

I never took the distributor cap off nor did I unplug any wires going to the coil. I know that the coil has the wire that goes to the center of distributor cap. This is not the wire in question. The wire in question is the power feed line that goes to the plug end of the coil. I think it is green w/ orange strip. I not getting any voltage at the end that plugs into the bottom of coil with the ignition off or on. I'm trying to do a resistance test on the plug, so I'm trying to find out where the other end of the volt line (green w/ orange stripe).

 

did you unplug the cam sensor wire (goes into the distributor)?

 

Cam-sensor,.. Not lugged in or, bad.

 

The cam sensor is plugged in. How does a bad cam sensor cause there to no voltage going to the plug, on bottom, of coil?

 

What is the other black plug on the wiring harness that is right next to the cam sensor plug. I don't recall unpluging anything from this. Cam sensor only fits into the gray color plug. The black one doesn't seem to have a home.
