just put my engine back in but will not start
it has no spark someone has told me it could be my crank sensor
so need to no asap how to test it thanks.

 

have u a knock sensor fitted?If so make sure you have not connected the crank/knock sensor the wrong way round!or it might be the phase sensor you can get wrong with the knock sensor

 

dont think i have, the only other sensor plug that is anywhere near is my dizzy cap one, but that is black so i no its not that one

 

cool well the crank sensor needs to be around .8mm from the lugs

 

ill go have a look but im sure it right.
is there a way of testing it with a multi meter

 

the gap is right


i put a plug in the lead to watch if there is any spark.

when i turn the ignition on and of there is a spark
but no spark when you turn it over






spelling

 

Is your fuel pump working when you turn the engine over?

 

when i put the ignition on i can here it kick in.


but i noteiced somthing if my dizzy cap isnt pluged in it dont kick in till i plug it back in, is that normal.


also spoke to a mate and he told me it shouldnt be sparkin when i turn my ignition on and off.




speling

 

The fact that you can here your pump kick in tells you the cps is ok.
As for unplugging the dizzy I would have thought that normal.

still no spark

been tryin to fix it for ages no with no luck anyone got any ideas why i have no spark


problem still the same. when i turn the ignition lights on and off i get a spark but when i crank it over nothing.

any help please






spelling

 

maybe stupid question, but have you checked the timing is right? dont know if its wrong it just sparks at a wrong point or it doesnt fire at all...

 

yes mate checked it a few times

i was told if it wass rong it still sparks but not at the right time.



i have checked it from the coil wire aswell and its the same there as the plugs

 

The ignition timing is fixed mechanically by the CPS alignment with the crank pulley, so if valve timing is correct so is igntion timing, though it is possible to get cross firing in the dizzy cap, but it's not this otherwise you'd have a spark.
