I just replaced the crankshaft sensor and it will not start. I also replaced the harmonic balancer. One of the wires was burnt on the old crank sensor. If I lifted up on the multi wire plug for the crank sensor and the truck would die. I have checked the timing 3 times and it is right on. It does not have a cam sensor. It sounds like it wants to start but just cant do it. Like its going to start but then sounds like its going to backfire. I did check the first plug wire on the intake side it had good spark. I'm not sure what to check. What would be the most likely problem? I thought it was the harness but am not sure. If it was 180 out it should still run fine maybe it is the icm? I'm lucky right now the wife just had surgery so I can drive her car for awhile about another 2 weeks. I got to start somewhere I hate wiring but will try anything.
