This Is Weird Trys To Start Backwards

Wow. First off, stop capitalizing every first letter of every word. Second, if you crossed you battery cables the alternator and started would be fried. Third, how is the motor spinning backwards?

I would have to agree . . . and no, I do not believe it's possible to spin the starter in reverse (at least not easily).

If you're refering to the way the timing belt spins on a 4g63, the cam gears spin clock-wise . . .
 
Wow. That post was a result of being over tired from to many dsms. We r working on like 3 at once and i think we r seeing things. Sorry about the dumb post. The engine wasnt turning backwards but after redoing the timing 10 times and checking every sensor and connection 20 times the car still wasnt starting. this was a last resort kind of thing. ended up being the cam pos sensor. Again, sorry about the post, guess its not a good thing to be awake till 3am working on dsms for a week straight.
