can anyone help figure this one out?

[jlcjr42]

So i just had my head gasket replaced on my 97 gst and the car was running fine until the crankshaft pulley started coming off because all 4 of the bolts were stripped. so i got new ones put them in and it was still running fine. i was real low on gas. when i went to push the throttle down the car just died. and would not start anymore. it turns over really good and i put more gas in it and still wont start. i cant figure out why it is not starting. if you know of anything or have had this problem before let me know so i can get this thing running and sell it thanks.

Crank angle sensor? Do you have any CEL? did it make any strange noises?

 

[jlcjr42]

nope no cel and no strange noise. it still cranks over reall good. i checked to make sure it is getting fuel and it is. and i checked for spark and i could not get any sparks off any of the plugs.

clogged injectors maybe i have ran cars out of gas before and haven't gotten them to start ### all the shit sitting in the bottom of ## tank when its really low like that gets sucked into ## fuel system take off ## fuel filter and blow compressed air through it clean it all out nice and good and take ## injectors out and clean them very well soak them with injector cleaner and run air through them i have had to do this on 3 of my tuners the worst was my 240 but after i did this car fired right up

My bets are on the CAS or the thingamajig next to the coil near the timing belt, damn things name escapes me right now. That or the ignitor.

Coil generally goes out one bank at a time. Could check the ECU while your at it.

Go get an voltmeter and check all three.

Could be the transistor pack

I doubt its the CAS since he isn't getting spark. I'd go with the power transistor unit or the coil pack.

So you replaced the crankshaft pulley... were the belts properly put back on? It could be your harmonic balancer or balancer shaft/belt. This happened to me and my car would crank but my start, until it was replaced.

cam sensor. controls firing as well
