So I'm now at wits end. I bought a 90 Laser with a 90 Mitsubishi 2.0 turbo in it. It was smoking bad so I decided to change the head gasket and all gaskets from the head up. No big deal took about two days. Unfortunately I'm a retard and turned my Intake Cam 180 out and tried to start it.....Bent all 8 valves. Not cool! So I pulled the head off again, this time I had help. Put the new valves in and put it back together. Tried starting it and nothing...apparently the Haynes magazine has the wrong spark plug setup because I tried the set-up suggested by you on this forum and she fired right up.

So I guess your wondering why the topic is Crank no start.

Well here it is.

My fellow retard didn't tighten the Camshaft Pulleys for the timing belt. As the car was running I saw the pulley shimmy and then the timing belt walked right off and the car stopped.:cry:

I redid the timing (with his help) and now the car only turns and no start. I do have spark and smell the fuel. She just ran 2 hours before and now nothing. Someone please help me out. :confused:
