Ok so helping a friend with this one.
I am open to idea's.
1993 240, The car had a HG done about 5-10 miles ago, it ran fine and when they went to restart this issue came up and it has not run in a few years.
Spark has been verified on all cyl, timing looks to flash between 10-0 when connected to #1.
Rotor points to mark on distributor
Crank is set at zero (validated with piston movement) and cam gear is at zero.
Compression is the same across all 4cyl (meausing around 160 on my 12 year old HF guage so it can be low)
Car has around 1/2 tank of fuel (5gal of it is fresh fuel I just added)
I need to validate int shaft is at zero along with remove cam bolt and make sure roll pin did not sheer.
With carb cleaner the car will not start, it actually feels more like the engine is flooded or being flooded.
With all of the injectors disconnected and cranking the car will fire but not spin fast enough to keep running and then just die, after that it will not fire again for a few min. Typically if i reconnect the injectors and crank it will do the same fire and then die . With the injectors connected the engine will shake like crazy like it is firing but not. With the injectors disconnected after enough cranks it stops doing this and just barely moves while cranking.
The trans has not been removed as far as I know so the flexplate should be correct, RPM sensor is a new unit.
