So a few weeks ago I replaced my exhaust manifold and my head gasket trouble shooting for a cooling issue...
After putting it back together, I was running it for about a week (didn't solve the over-heating issue... but that's another story all together). At one point I drove it for about 30-40 miles without any issues. Eventually I went to Costco which is about 2-3 miles, and it just died on the way home. I figured it ran out of gas as it was really low. Since then I've put two gallons in and it still won't start. So that isn't the issue.
I read online a bit, and read a bout the CPS Sensor being a common issue. I checked for a spark and there was no spark. I have both fuel and voltage gauge. I've unplugged and plugged in the CPS, and it didn't have any effect on it. I have also disconnected the battery to reset the ECU, and no luck.
I've looked around for loose hoses / connections but haven't been able to find any...
I'm pretty poor, and lacking motivation (esp after all that I did just the other week for it...) so looking for any assistance in where I should look. The more I can "test" without buying parts is obviously preferred. Also I'm doing all this work by myself and don't have any assistance... so sometimes doing two things at once can be a huge problem.
