i got my car all put back together and everything torqued down


but it cranks but won't start, we check fuel pressure and its got plenty

so we figure its a spark problem, theres one sensor that got broken when it was at the machine shop

its the little coolant switch on the drivers sideof the block, i got it on there bc it has the prongs and everything and still no start

i have the grounds all down but theres a couple on the same bolt, but that shouldn't be enough to stop the coilpacks from deciding to spark

so we're gonna change the plugs tonight and if it still doesn't start do you ls1 geniouses have any ideas?

That colant temp sensor will come into play, only after it gets warmed up as it will want to die on ya if its not workin.. so, keep an eye on that "when" you get her up and runnin...

Is it even trying to start? When I did all my stuff, I actually had the wire harness to the coil packs in "backwards"... I just had it flip floped in other words. So, 1 was plugged into 7 and 3 into 5. This was on one both sides so you can imagine what it sounded like.. Just a thought.

mine only gets going with the starter motor, no spark at all

it has the fuel pressure but that one sensor is the only one not connectd

It's the one behind the starter and it's a bitch to get to.
