As far as cranking goes, have you checked to see where your CAS(Crank Angle Sensor) is at? For example, is it in it's original position(middle). I still deal with this problem because if I place my CAS in it's original position, idle becomes no existent. so I stick to dealing with using the gas pedal to crank. But anyways, check to see where your CAS is at. That's the only help I can give you.

Don't touch the CAS unless you have a timing light. Without a light, you're guessing.

I'll pay for your plane ticket to come here and throw that into Ortiz Racing's face. That is what they did. Ever since then, I've been guessing. I have to look into getting a Timing gun soon. Carl is the only person who has a Timing Gun, and well, I really don't like bothering him, so I'll do it myself once I get the moeny.

Have you done a tune up yet???

Checked TPS??? new spark plugs??? new fluids??? etc everything that a 60Kmile tune up would require???

And next time you post a new thread... post a real title. You will get much more help then.
