    im gonna mess with my wiring tonight and have my handy dandy wiring diagram next to me and check every single sensor i have plugged in. lol

    as for the maf and O2 nothing changes (atleast it didnt B4) also all that shits new.

    plus it ran fine in my red car when i didnt even have an O2 at all. im starting to lean towards vanos problem. as for the miss in thinking coil pack.

      What about unpluging the Vanos or the Cam?

      If its vanos based, either of those will disable your vanos.

        im gonna do the vanos test when i have the valve cover off

        i didnt notice that my cam sensor has the wrong color wires in the plug and only 2 of them and the crank sensor has the right colors... so im taking the intake off tomorrow and checking all the plugs!

          Cam sensor only has 2?
          It should be that your crank sensor has two wires
          and your cam has 3

            according to the wiring diagram i have for the ms 3.3.1 it shows 2 wires to the crank and they are the right colors. and the cam has 3 but the only plug i have left that isnt used thats plugged into the cam has a black and a clearish color wire in it.... so idk wtf is up with this harness taking the intake mani off today to check every plug...

              They use an insulated clear ish wire for signal on a bunch of different engine managements.

              You need to use continuity and find out what that connector is.

                Continuity test is the best way to handle the wiring imo. Hope you figure it soon Josh!
