Just FYI, most aftermarket service manuals have the plug wire diagram completely screwed up.....Haynes, Chilton, etc. The only place I know of that has the correct diagram is the ford shop manual.
Always draw your own schematic when doing the coil pack cars.
Not trying to preach, just a word to the wise from someone who already made that same mistake.
If you know someone, you can always call a friend who has a coil pack car and have them tell you how their car is wired in a pinch.
The car still won't fire. We swapped the crank timing gear out and the crank sensor pick up wheel and we still can't get it to fire. We think that since the engine has been sitting for 3 years that the followers have bleed down. We tried to pull the plugs and unhook the injectors then crank it over to build oil pressure (we don't know any other way to move a crank driven oil pump). We still cannot get the car to start. It cranks then stutters then cranks some more if that makes any sence. The car started just fine before we put the new motor in. It spins freely with a ratchet on the front bolt but we cannot get the damn thing to fire for the life of us. It has spark and fuel, just the timing/valves is/are not working right.
Posted via Mobile Devicehey had a thought. Are you sure wires are right. If they are like an 03 than maybe the harness is backwards and they are all wrong
