1989 Mustang 2.3L won't start Ok, I'm at my wits end... About 6 weeks ago, the head gasket disintegrated between the #1 and #2 cylinders. I replaced the head gasket, and while the head was off also swapped out the cam for a ’93 Mustang 2.3L cam. Also, dropped on the exhaust manifold from the ’93, as well. Buttoned everything up, and the car ran ok for two days. Had a rough idle for the first few minutes after startup, but then ran ok. Then, as I was driving the second day, the engine just died. One moment, I’m driving 45mph and then the tach goes to zero, no sound from the motor… and I coast to a stop. The engine than refused to start. So, here’s the breakdown: The engine will crank, and sounds like it wants to start but won’t. Compression is good. PCM, Coil, Spark Plugs, Ignition Module are all good. (Replaced all with new parts, except PCM) I just had installed a new fuel pump, filter and injectors. Fuel is getting to injectors. It seems like all the parts are there: fuel, spark, and compression… yet, no go… I haven’t tested the Hall effect sensor on the distributor, but am going to… anything else I should be looking for? I am at a complete loss as to why this motor will not start… |
