No Start 850

If I had a mechanic replace the head gasket and he couldn't get the car to start afterwards, he wouldn't get paid much. How do you know he put the cams back on correctly? Or anything else for that matter? Once the car leaves his shop, all fixes for mistakes made by the shop are no longer his responsibility.

AND you have to pay to have it flatbeded to your home?

The camshaft position sensor is towards the firewall from the distributer, on the rear cam. The distributer is on the forward cam.

Also check the plug positions on the distributer. Wire #1 is at 0930, #3 is at 1200, #5 is at 1400, #4 is at 1700, and #2 is at 2200hrs. You will need a torx driver to get the black cover off.
