we think we found out whats wrong, it looks like the two halfs of the wheel on the crank got pulled apart and bent just the right way to dick it all up
a guy that knows a guy at the dealer. he hook me up with working on the car because no one wanted to work on it.
so it comes down to now what to do? we might be able to fix it in the car or the whole engine is coming back out and getting done all over again. **** me

So is it ready to fire up soon again? So how did you fix the bent crank reluctor wheel..??
Well hopefully you get yours going again now. I have had mine apart waiting for new 4l80 and now transmission is 500 miles away and stuck it customs apparently.I hate Canada Customs..My chances of driving mine much with new trans swap are getting less and less by the day as it gets closer to cold and nasty weather out there.
So how do you like that new truck?

Man tom, if I was not deployed, I would drive down and help you with this bitch. But either way, get this **** done, and then I can get mine done, and we can cruise APS style.
... But I will be looking at you pretty soon, cause in 3.6 miles when my APS stock turbos go bad, Im going with the LG turbos, so I will be able to pick up some good tips from ya.
Keep us updated.

3.6 miles, huh? That is freaking hilarious! Man Tom, sorry to hear about all the trouble. I was hoping Alex would have been some help for ya when he was there. Good luck getting it figured out. Mine is coming apart next month for a trans rebuild and probably turbo rebuilds or turbo replacement. We'll have to see what I find. It keeps running and I haven't killed it yet. But they smoke every so often when in boost.
