NON Start issue
 

Okay so here is my problem. A couple weeks ago i came up to a stop sign and put inthe clutch and my car just died. And would not start back up would turn over and turn over but nothing. So i figured i ran out of gas. Went and got gas and still would not start. Figured i burnt my fuel pump up. So i put in a new fuel pump yesturday and still nothing. Then today i saw one of my spark plug wires were loose and put it back on nice and tight and it started right up then when i give it gas it would bog at first then would clear up later in the rpms. And now will not start it will just crank. I plugged in link on the laptop and it says my cps circut is bad so could that be why my car is not starting ?

Crankwalk

Re: NON Start issue
 

I hope not could it be tho

Re: NON Start issue
 

Have you checked fuses? Is yours still 7 bolt? Checked that all the sensors are plugged in/clean?
I believe I have some extra crank and cam sensors lying around, i'll try to dig them up.

Re: NON Start issue
 

A bad coolant temp sensor will also cause a no start.

Re: NON Start issue
 

Coolant temp shouldn't matter much, it would just run really rich on startup. Check your crankshaft end play, hopefully it's just the sensor.

Re: NON Start issue
 

Got a new sensor already does it need to be aligned with the cam sensor or anything or can i just swap the crank sensors

Re: NON Start issue
 

I was thinking the same thing when I read it stalled when he pushed the clutch in. hopefully it hasn't gone walking and the sensor is just bad or the plug came loose. good luck.

Re: NON Start issue
 

So im guessing it dont have to be aligned with the cam sensor correct

Re: NON Start issue
 

The crank sensor just bolts in next to the crank under the timing cover there is no alighnment or adjustment,

Re: NON Start issue
 

Okay thank you

Re: NON Start issue
 

Well i think it walked it keeps poopin up that the cps is bad and i got the new sensor in. So i dont know what to do if someone maybe wants to come check it out before i tear it apart and give input thatll be cool but otherwise im done with it.

Re: NON Start issue
 

Endplay check http://www.angelfire.com/pa4/awdcrankwalk/

Crankshaft endplay 0.0020 - 0.0071 per AllData for 96 AWD Turbo

Could be wiring issues also, so checking for crankwalk without tearing things apart might save you some time.

I should be available after Wednesday this week in the afternoons if you want help.

Re: NON Start issue
 

Yea dont really feel like rippin it apart unless i really have to so id like to make sure it walked before that or atleast figure out its not other things help would be nice for sure

Re: NON Start issue
 

I'll know for sure on Wednesday when my freetime will be so I'll pm you then.

Re: NON Start issue
 

Sounds good thanks man

Re: NON Start issue
 

So im like 100% positive it walked so now to decide to part out and get an evo or just rebuild it

Re: NON Start issue
 

Evos arent bad :)

Sorry to hear about the misfortune you're having
