I went after the problem with my Cobra in ernest this weekend.
I had written a thread asking for help a couple of months ago. My Snake wouldn't start. It cranked and would have no fire. I thought I had checked everything. Crank Sensor, Fuel Pump, everything... The PATS was checked too.
I couldn't come up with anything.
Well, I had my son in law up this weekend and we started tracing wires. Luckily the crankshaft position sensor was the first thing we checked. There was an open in one of the wires from the PCM to the sensor. It was the Blue wire.
We just ran a bypass instead of trying to trace down the harness around all the nooks and crannys. Once we ran that wire the baby fired right up!
She runs like poop. But I expect that that's because the battery has been disconnected for so long. I'm going to run it around a bit tomorrow and see if it clears up. Ready to roll!!! OHHHHH YEAH!!!!!
