I rebuilt the engine top to bottom. New crank, timing, rings, oil & water pump, ect. ect. ect. I inspected all new parts to old parts to verify they were exactly the same. The car has been down 4 months with battery disconnected. All sensors are the same, but tried a new Cam Pos Sen when it would not start. My scanner has no trouble codes. I am getting spark, but the injectors do not seem to be opening (Plugs are dry no matter how long turning over). I am getting fuel to the injectors. Is there something with the anti-theft causing this? I am at a loss... So are several mechanics I know. Any insight is greatly appreciated.

 

is the cam tone gear the same as the old one?? unplug your cam sensor and try and start it up it should take 10 seconds or so b4 it will start though.

 

ok...I am on my knees bowing to you!!!! So, now that it started, I am looking at getting a cam gear directly from Chrysler and changing it?!? Am I assuming correctly? The old (factory) gear is pretty worn. Also, is it possible to run and drive it for a day with the cps unplugged to break in the new motor?

And again.... I BOW TO YOU!!!!

 

I don't know much , but i never heard of anti theft devices disabling anything othet than ignition.

if it were me i would start it using Ether works best with two people one cranking the othergiving it a good spray into the intake alum throttle body (or mixer whatever it's called), i have done this before without any sensor damage.you need a good healthy spray as it's cranked,,,if it fires up and runs you ABSOLUTELY know it's a fuel related issue. not timing or spark or any other disabling system.

 

Well... You were right on the money CHRYSLER TECH. I swapped out the cam gear with one from chrysler... The cut-outs were wrong on the aftermarket gear. Its on the road and loving it! Thanks again!
