Okay guys I've spent all day tracing wires in my engine harness. Every wire I checked between the coil packs and ECM had continuity so my thought was check wiring to the Crankshaft Position Sensor. It is 3 wire, 12 volt supply, triggering signal, and ground to ECM. I checked those wires and the only wire I could not get continuity out of is the 12 volt supply from the ECM. Can this be my whole problem? Will I be fine making a jumper wire from CKP sensor plug to the postive battery terminal to see if it starts without harming anything?
