I have installed cams on dsms but this is my first evo swap. I aligned my crankshaft pulley and cam gears , used zip ties, when I got finished all marks line up properly and my compression is 180, 160, 180, 180. I was searching and I found that Evo 9 compression should be around 145, Is there something that would cause high compression and no start? I switched around the orientation on my exhaust cam sensor with no change. Any help is appreciated... im at a loss and do not want to re-time if there could be another problem.


Spark test - FAILED
FLIPPED Cam Sensor 180 - FAILED
FLIPPED Intake Sensor 180 - FAILED
Fuel Pump Activation (cyl / plugs are dry)- PASSED / FAIL
Compression Test - PASSED
Fuse Panel - PASSED
Wiring Harness - PASSED

CONCLUSION:
Do to myself being sloppy during install a cut plastic tie from the camshaft pulley fell between the lower timing cover and worked its way into the timing belt and broke off the crankshaft sensor. I removed and replaced the crankshaft sensor and she fires up and runs as it should. Side note first impression of my Kellford 264's have a stock like idle and untuned i can feel the added torque. Im looking forward to getting a tune.

 

Check fuses. There is one under the dash that likes to blow.

 

check all your connections.

 

sounds like you may have one of the cam positioning sensor intake or exhaust wheel things ( cant think of the actually name lol) installed backwards.. that would cause it to not start

once you remove the 3 10mm bolts holding the cover plate on for each cam, theres the 12mm or 14mm bolt holding it on. make thats installed correctly and not 180* out of phase

 

My plugs are bone dry and i pulled one of the spark plug wires and grounded the side of the plug and i am not seeing any spark. What sensors will pull spark and fuel?

 

Crankshaft position sensor plugged in?

 

Im going to pull the lower timing cover and inspect it.

 

Check your fuses!!!!

 

The first thing I would check is the CAM angel sensor trigger. Easily reversed 180 degrees, and is the cause of many "no starts" after cam installs.

 

There's a 10A fuse under the dash for ignition. Check that BEFORE you take anything else apart. Don't be dumb.

 

I've checked all fuses, I am definitely not getting spark, and my plugs are dry. I'm going to purchase a crank shaft sensor An give that a try, hopefully that fixes the problem. I have flipped the cam sensor with no change. I notice the rpm gauge dosnt move when starting, is that normal?

 

exactly what i tried telling him

 

I have tried flipping the cam sensor 180* unfortunately that's not the problem.

 

Are you getting any codes?

 

no codes, it's gotta be the crank shaft sensor... Maybe a zip tie got down there and broke it.
