Thanks Steve, he already had it fixed when he e-mailed me. Good info though :icon_super:

He posted on the boards that the GN let him sit, he's been driving it for over a week.  Lost all power, went to start and it backfired and blew the muffler. I e-mailed him with what I thought. He decided to just let it sit for awhile, the car has cost him enough already. The car is nice, but I think it's had a tough life. Hopefully that will change.

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

I was concerned about the crank sensor. When I got the car started after the head work I heard this "Tinging" noise. Here the crank sensor was loose in the bracket and hitting the damper pulley. You could see where somebody just replaced the damper pulley. I figured they biffed the sensor and started the mess up. I put my spare on from my car and all seemed o.k. Cam sensor looked original.
