I have no spark. New crank position sensor. 60 psi fuel pressure.

2005 won't start. Cranks, has fuel pressure, replaced CPS, no error codes. Thank god it broke in the garage. Any suggestions?

Well this ornery sucker has managed to fool me again. The car ran great with the new knock sensor. Tried to start it again this morning and was distressed to find that it is back to its old tricks. Make me think that there is a short somewhere in one of the wiring harnesses that is sensitive...

Figured it out. Turned out not to be the MAF at all. It was the knock sensor. Replaced that and bang everything worked great.

Which twonwires should hit with my DMM to verify that tge burn off relay is working properly

Quick update removed the TPS and just rotated it with out even moving the throttle . slight increase in RPM. Aside from that no effect. Could this be the relays you referred to?

Well leta see. Ive gone thru six MAF sensors they all have different failures modes. The one that i have in there now the ECM seems to like. When I pulled the connector off the MAF the car runs well. However there is a code interestingly I pulled the TPS and the car doesnt seem to care with...

With the new sensor there are no codes. I thought maybe the TPS was acting up but when I check the voltage it looks pretty much dead on. Thought maybe the brain was scrambled so put a new ECM in and it still acts the same. Any suggestions?

Hi guys, I have been fighting with my MAF sensor. I have replaced it with many sensors they all fail the same way. The car starts and sounds great. Touch the throttle and instantly dies. I have changed everything in the circuit I can think of. When the sensor is disconnected car runs like...

Hi Guys, Been a while since I posted. I have a 2001 convertible that has an LS1 out of a 1998 vette (Lambo sales guy thought he was cool wrecking the original engine). The engine runs great no complaints save one. I keep getting a knock sensor error its easy to clear out and once cleared...

according to the website When I looked at their system they said it wouldn't work on the 2003 or 2004 in their comments. Would it be awesome if they wouldnt make a $1500 option that costs $2500 to repair?

HI Everyone, I have a 2003 50th anniversary with the magnetic ride control for the shocks. They are blown out :happyanim: and I want to replace them. I have absolutely NO interest in putting $2500 into shocks. What solutions has everyone found on replacing shocks and getting rid of the...

since you dont know what you did It might be the original security system. The connections do get old after a while. I know that in the much older C4's you had to unlock the door with the key to disable it. There might be a ghost in the machine there. Sometimes they have to run back to...

Hi guys, I noticed the other day that my drivers seat wasnt working right so of course I had to tear it apart. I have found the broken part but I cant find a replacement. One of the little potmetal brackets that swivels as the seat is adjusted up and down or tilted is broken. if anyone has a...

Hi Guys, I just had to tear into my dash (seems that the heater squirrel cage is a really good mousetrap). I had some lights bulbs that were out so I decided to replace them since the dash is out of the car. Does anyone have a line on where to get the light bulbs that go behind the selector...
