    Engine swap, Have spark, fuel, and timing, Crank No Start

    That’s what I’m thinking.. But I can’t figure out how to get it to line up perfectly with the punch method. If the compression checks out good tomorrow then I’ll definitely go after timing.

I tried multiple times to get it to line up perfectly with the hole but it was always ending up slightly past it so I...

Messed with the timing for a while and finally got it to where I believe it’s suppose to be (right after 1 position on...

    Crank, No Start, No Fuel Pump Priming, No Spark, No Gauges

    1997 Jeep Cherokee Sport 4.0 AW4 NP242. I was driving the other day and the jeep was running fine and then cut off with no warning. Wouldn’t start back up but it would crank.
