Wel all set up & No spark. Started retrasing wires & sensors and so on. I think the crank sensor may be bad. Or should I say I hope that is it.

I switched the 12v and low ref wires on the cmp sensor, No change the came code came right back. Maby the sensor is bad or the relearn may help. It starts hard unless I crack the throttle a bit.

I would do this swap again in a miniute. In reality the wiring was not bad at all!! Not as easy as charging it but well worth not droping a grand when all the parts are right there !! I would most likley just buy the mounts as in the end they took a bit of time to get just right and $60 to $65 bucks isnt bad for a set I figure in the end I spent $60 in hardware consumables & time.

I hate to hear that your problem is back but hopefully it will be simple. Great job on the part's list with part number's!

Thanks, I found the Left bank miss/exhaust pop. It was a cracked plug on 3#, as for the cam code I can clear it & if it starts up right off it wont comeback for a few miles. I will try and get it in for the relern this week and go from there.

I have my CASE/Crank relearn scheduled for tomorrow. 1 change I have made is to move the MAF about a foot away from the throttle body to try and ease the hard start.
I had it about 3" away. Well No differance on the starting but it did smooth out the acceleration from a dead stop. I will make up a inlet tube and cold air set up in the next week or two.
