Ok so my motor blew up awhile back and I was able to get a new one. We got it installed and we put a new coil pack on there and it's not wanting to start. The motor will turn over but won't start. What could be the problem?

 

[jayinpalmharbor]

too many variables and not enough information to help you diagnose the issue. can you hear your fuel pump turn on when you turn the key to accessory? can you get it to crank at all?

 

[bird]

Not it won't crank at all. It just turns over. We checked and it's Not
firing at all.

If it isn't cranking, it won't turn over.

Now we're getting somewhere.



Spark plugs getting power?

 

[bird]

No the spark plugs are gettin power

 

[horribleR]

Getting fuel?

getting enough fuel?

all cylinders getting fuel?

When you try to start it..if the motor actually spins and will not start..IT IS CRANKING OVER!!!

You need to disconnect the battery...then reconnect and scan the codes...

you are not giving us a whole lot of info here.

We tried disconnecting the battery but it didn't help. We called the place we got the motor from and he said it could be the cam angle sensor, would that cause it not to start

CAS is for ur timing, so yes.

 

[baron340]

Check the mechanical timing as well.

 

[Jspade]

Check the crank sensor and the trigger wheel.
