    Nope, I'm sure I connected them correctly.
    I tested the coil and crankshaft position sensor for resistance, and they seem faulty. I'm gonna try replacing them to see what that does.

    Thanks.

        Since I was fed-up with trying to solve the problem, I got the car towed to a specialist and he fixed the problem in about an hour!
        It had nothing to do with the job I did, or any other part I replaced. It was that the wire running from the battery to the car's computer was faulty! The previous owner had the car's front footwells rewelded, causing damage to the wire somehow. SO what he did was create a bridge with a fuse in the engine bay, right where the battery wires come into it (front left). I'll post a pic up if y'all want to see.
        Car works fine now!

        So 325isdan, maybe you can try and do the same??

          My brother's car had the EXACT same issue! We were confused as all hell.

          He brought it in to Hurless Brothers, and it took them hours to find out is was the fusible link too. I had NO idea that was there. Wasn't until I remembered pulling the battery cable from my parts car, did I remember that little wire going along with it.

          Definitely check that. Remove the plastic piece covering the battery cable in the trunk, and take a looksee.
