Did I Do Something Wrong? No Start

Recommended Posts

Changed rear cam seal. Couldn't get it out. Disconnected distributor from coil. Left cam sensor connected. Cranked system to attempt to loosen seal (futile and stupid). Car won't start. Tries once and spits like its rich with little spark. Not going to go much farther than that. Figure the ECU is confused.

I did this yesterday and did not try to start it until about an hour ago.

Did I short the sensor? Kill the coil?

Give me some insight. I will try to swap CPS with a good working unit later.

You probably flooded the cylinders

Haven't really cranked it enough for that but I can check that just in case. I cranked about 3-5 times while the CPS was disconnected haven't really done it more than that.

I should add that I did this yesterday and did not try to start it until about an hour ago.
