Default 2002 Sebring No Start, No Spark on #2 and #3

I bought a 2002 Chrysler Sebring Convertible (V6-2.7L VIN R) from auction. I saw oil under the hood everywhere. It started but a little rough. However, on the way home, it stopped and wouldn't start. I checked spark and found no spark on #1 and #4. I changed both camshaft sensor and crankshaft sensor. It seems the old camshaft sensor is broken since one resistance reading is different from the new one. However, the car still won't start and now I don't see spark on #2 and #3 (#1 and #4 are good now). No DTC code. Please help.

Do you have fuel pressure?

Yes, there is fuel pressure. Fuel pressure may cause starting problem. But it should have nothing to do with spark problem, right?

I bought a 2002 Chrysler Sebring Convertible (V6-2.7L VIN R) from auction.
I saw oil under the hood everywhere.
It seems the old camshaft sensor is broken since one resistance reading is different from the new one.
Anyone else seeing a pattern here??

If I had to guess...It was at the auction, because someone put an engine in it and couldnt get it to run....Then Bailed On It.

If you go thru the last months worth of posts, You will find COUNTLESS examples of this......."Bought a Motor from the Junkyard, and It wont Run"...The old Motor ran Fine but it Knocked....

I wont go into Great detail, But there are two different versions of the 2.7....

THEY ARENT PLUG AND PLAY COMPATIBLE WITH EACH OTHER.....


For right now...Unplug the camshaft sensor, and try to start it.....

I did unplug the camshaft sensor and test spark. No spark on any cylinder.
