For Sale / Crank Positioning sensor SoCal

« on: February 15, 2013, 06:48:23 PM »

Hey everyone I have a brand new CPS for the m42. I thought mine went out but i found the source of my no start problem to be a relay. The part store I bought it didn't accept a return on the item even though i bought it the day before. I opened the box and I checked the OHms which was about the same as the one I had on the car. So since I cannot return for a refund its up for sale.

$80 local

Pm me if you want it shipped.

I know Im trying to see if the problem has stopped... when i turned the car on for the first time with the new gaskets it was acting weird like it was going to die when i hit the throttle. but now its good, morning starts isn't as bad, but i still haven't changed the plugs,
 i will probably this coming weekend.

hey everyone just want to start this thread on my new motor that i swapped into my car.

I took my car to a friend to see the compression on the motor. But at the beginning when i first got my motor i checked the plugs and it had oil all over it.. but I thought it was because of it being tilted and it was sitting for a while... so i changed the plugs and drove the car for over 1500 miles since i installed it.

Back to the story, when I took it to my friends shop he pulled the plugs and they were soaked in oil all four cylinders. and the compression showed 125 +1-2
across all cylinders, my friend told me its showing they are all the same but I the  plugs arent a good signn, i mite need a head, and valve cover gasket replacement.

need some help on what to do at this point....

Thanks ,

Paul
