Tested it tonight. The 3-2-1 testcode can NOT be reset. The other codes are gone but this one not.
So this means I have the upgrade?
No ignition codes. Cranksensor and TPS sensor testing OK.
I clearly hear and feel radio relais, idle valve, injectors fuelpump in testing mode.
Pulled the new sparkplug and it is wet and gassy smelling.
So maybe I don't have a spark in the cilinders?
I hooked up the spark plug cables #1 on the left of the distributor , then 3 on the right, then 4, then 2.
Looking from the front of the engine, and calling the cilinder closest to the firewall #1.
Even though there are no ignition codes, and plugs , distributor , rotor, crankshaft sensor are new, I begin to suspect ignition now for this absolute no run.
Any suggestions? Haven't checked fuel pressure again or pulled intake manifold to look at the sensors.
