Ok, so My car hasn't started in some time... It died while it was running and just never started again. Sounds like it's flooded, but all unflooding attempts have failed. It has spark and fuel. It sputters but never starts.... ANYWAY



So I built the Code checker witht he 2 LED's to see if it had any codes.. (If any sensors were bad) So I checked and it didn't have any. I unplugged the Water Thermo sensor to make sure the tester worked... sure enough it worked fine... it threw a code 3. So I then unplugged my Crank Angle Sensor and checked for a code... it never gave off a code. Isn't this strange? Shouldn't it be throwing a code 1 if this is unplugged? What could this mean? I need some help... electrical stuff isn't my strongest skill.



THanks guys..I know the Rotary Guru's will know the answer to this.

check compression.



also if you have spark, for now, i wouldnt worry about the CAS.



first you need to ensure you have fuel, spark, and compression. with those 3 things definitely intact then you can start looking at other smaller areas.

Fuel and Spark are ok. COmpression will be checked tomorrow with a gauge... however it souns good.. I can hear the sound of the air excaping the motor withthe plugs out when I try and rotate it...

cas might not set a code right away, its "weird"?



ive got a 20b thats been driving us nuts, and it looks like the cas is bad, but it was throwing ignition codes...
