#65384, "Please help fellow 2gnter?? long"


          

Its not my car But a guy in miami needs help getting it on the road again. Here is the story.

basically just to tell you all the story i had a problem about a few months ago with the car just stalling out out of no where. Total power loss. So finally it totally went down and would not start at all. My sis told me to let her friend check it out and he screwed me over. i told him to just let me know what the problem was and he went ahead and fixed the car. He told me he changed a few sensors, (crank, cam, speed ) Than after wards my speed sensor was wrong anyways and he told me he would have to get the part from mitsubishi. I took a look at it my self and he just wired it wrong and put the wrong gear in it. It looked like a used old sensor too. ANYWAYZ
Now i went and changed my head gasket, timing belt, and motor mounts and put headers on the car. The first time we thought it was done we tryed to start it and my friend said it was the timing (he could tell because of the noise the exhaust was makin) than we went and did the timing. now we don't know what it is i beleive the timing is right. I'm not getting any spark. Just fuel. I tried changing the coil pack and wires and that didn't change anything. My car is gettting fuel but no spark. I've been havin trouble with it stalling and stuff like that to. Now it just turns but doesn't run. How can i check what's wrong with it? I was thinking of trying to find a Used computer to plug in. I just tested the computer for trouble codes by the check engine light and i got codes:
12=?
23=?
24= throttle postion sendor voltage out of normal range
22= Engine coolant temperature sensor voltage out of normal range
42= Fuel pump relay or MFI relay control circuit indicates an open or shorted circuit condition??
55= ??
Does any one know the other codes?

seems to me like you forgot to hook up some sensors/harnesses.
your cel codes seem to say check the coolant temp sensor/asd relay/tps sensor. and are the timing marks all correctly lined up?
could be wrong timing too, I would double check everything, seems like you messed with alot of stuff and didnt hook it up correctly.

start with connectors/sensors then check timing again.

Oddly enough, I have all of these with the exception of the 24, plus a 25, a 43, and the 31x3, and Daisy still runs fine. Interesting. It sounds to me like you must have left something unplugged somewhere. Or you sis's master mechanic friend who did some extra credit in auto shop got you the wrong sensors somewhere. A fried crankshaft or cam position sensor will not be able to tell the ignition when to fire...

A lot of those sensors showing errors are on the same section of wiring harness. You could have missed a connector, or there could be a grounding problem/wiring short in that part of the harness.
