reaper47 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2009 Put it in the 30 I'd just get an engine if i was to do that Dave. Not that it hasn't crossed my mind. I may even do that if i could get it to start. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

melowpuf 19 Report post Posted April 17, 2009 Oooooooh I can answer this one... It needs to be scanned by someone with a Brain.. Word has it that Glenn has both a scanner and some may even say two brains. Hope you're not too far away from Botany.. **GLENN** **GLENN** HE'S THE MAN, IF HE CAN'T FIX IT NO ONE CAN.

*Glenn* 854 Report post Posted April 17, 2009 It needs to be scanned first. The faults you describe would lead me to guess its the crankshaft position sensor thats failed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
