    Reference sensor? Kill me?

    Sooo my car is still broken as posted on a previous post...Got rid of my fusable link...Still broken down in front of Korman Autoworks, ironically.

    Buying reference sensor.

    Heres the story yet again if someone wants to lend a helping idea!

    Drove car there fine. 10 minutes later, started car, it sounded like it started, then it died a second later. Wouldnt start up again. It now cranks.
    A friend who works at Korman says all signs point to reference sensor, or pin a-la flywheel.

    Checked relays, fusable links, fuses.

    I think / hope / pray they checked fuel delivery, coil, sparks.

    : ( bad week.

    Reference sensor=Crankshaft position sensor?


    After I did a clutch job I flip flopped my 2 crankshaft sensors and it wouldn't start but I could crank it until the battery died. Maybe one on your car just decided to go tits?

    Hope you get her running soon, I know how frustrating that shit is.

    Aa a bonus filling the tank will also double any Eta's resale value .

        That does need to be done. Testing of resistance and what not I think. He should have done it. But yes, my car goes "tits" quite often it seems. I mean....Its as if when it started for a second it burned off all the fuel in the fuel rail and the njust died. and wont start. Grrrrrr.

          Try unplugging the referance sensors and plugging them back in.
