Car problems
ok so i just got done changing out the old water pump housing and one on the sensors (black small round one) behind the Water Pump housing snapped off from the wires well anyways i put everything back together with new hardware and gaskets and paint job but the car dose not seem to want to start well not fully turn on and drive hopefully that makes sense
so do you think because of that one snapped off sensor is the problem??

ok so i think i found out what the real problem is i didnt align the Crank Angle Sensor when i took it off or when i put it back in is there any way to aline these back other than the markings on the eccentric shaft pulley because i painted over them like a dumbass....... i know you use the pin thats right on top of it and as for the crank angle sensor itself you align the matching marks on the sensor housing and driven gear i need your help on this seriously.

WTH! you broke the water thermo sensor ? LOL you sound like me when Im working on my car! But a bad or disconnected water thermo sensor ( behind water pump) will flood your car out! Happened to me a few weeks back, but it was disconnected from driving too hard. LOL So I ended up replacing it anyways. Unflooded it and drove it to work like normal.
Get a Haynes manual for simple things like setting the CAS and timing.

Yeah that thermo sensor being busted will cause it to have hard start problems. I know when mine went bad it would sometimes take 2 mins of cranking for it to start up in the morning.
so what do you guys think????
