thought I almost had it. removed the cap and rotor, checked the alignment of the rotor plate, reinstalled everything - no change whatsoever. No start at all.

However, I did unplug the cam position sensor and found a ton of gunk on the female-end contacts, which I cleaned and then I tried it again. This time it started briefly and died again. I think I'm getting closer. Will pull the cam sensor again and inspect it. The car did actually start and run before I messed with it earlier today.

Just to be clear, this engine only has ONE point where the crank and cams are supposed to align - not TWO points like on a B18?
