Hello,
The transmission was removed, repaired and re-installed (twice), after I installed the flywheel in the wrong position for the crank sensor. I lined up the flywheel hole void with the starter opening at TDC as per the FAQ.
The car hasn't been started in about 6 weeks which I hope is the main problem.
On the first try it started but died after about 3 seconds, and cranks well but hasn't started since.
The trouble shooting results so far are:
There are no engine fault codes.
The timing reads 10 deg BTDC, which is a little less than the normal 12-15 is usually have. Inductive timing light shows a spark at each spark plug wire.
I replaced the spark plugs, which were very black and sooty from a rich running condition when the O2 sensor failed and was replaced about 6 weeks ago.
Fuel pump comes on and pressure is good at 40 psi.
I squirted some Gunk "instant start" into the open throttle body with no success.
There were no air hoses removed for the work done, and I don't see any leaking.
Is there a likely problem for a car that has sat for a while to cause a no start?
Thanks.
