hey guys i need help. I just finished changing my timing belt and while i was spinning the motor six times i sheard off two spark plug wires and when i tried to start the motor it would not start.? ifound out im not geting any spark from #2and #3 coil. I checked the two connections coming from the cams and crank and both are connected. so does anybody know what the problem is? did i do something wrong could the shearing of the wires do something or mess something up. any info would help thanks and I did replace the wires LOL
 
Disclaimer - have not done my Eclipse timing belt....
But when I did another asian car recently I found that I had to disconnect the battery for about 30 minutes after the belt replacement to get the engine
to start.

Of course all procedures demand that the batery is disconnected first, but I often ignore this.

But when I could not get a start I disconnected the battery for a while the tried again.

So. Just my 2 cents.
