Cranks no start…1996 Toyota Camry, customer blames fuel pump, so testing city ways from Sunday, definitely prooved it wasn’t so replaced and, crank no start, um yer not getting spark, checked coil, couldn’t proove, take the distributor cap off… looks good, so I have him crank it, rotor doesn’t turn, cam doesn’t turn, obvious now the timing belt was broken, crank sensor on the crank ran the pump, but no spark gave me the true answer.

No crank, described as a good battery, and a click…obviously the solenoid. No let no door, no battery, just jumped under it and found…. Freeze Off the nut removed nut wire, tighten the post… and p**f, problem solved.

customer calls complaining of transmission shift issues. (im jus doin this off the top of my head i don't have spacifics of year make model, his name etc).... i examine the car, it's got multiple issues, check engine light. i pull codes....P0605 PCM ROM memory fault error. powertrain control module fault (the tr**ny computer) i google cost of that and $80 out of a junkyard. also second code... P0335 crank sensor (crank sensor turns on the fuel pump). i then test drive it automatic with an on demand shift system, it wont shift at all, manually shifts up ibto 5th gear but won't downshift. at stop wont go back into first. rpm and idle are all in the wrong place..... so i come back, clear the code, disconnect and reconnect the bttery and ECM. idles even worse.... also noticed the RPM gauge doesn't work. call up AZ autozone an get a crank sensor for $80. get it in. start it up, imediate difference. idle is right, rpm works. test drive it and every shift point is where it needs to be.... transmission 101 :m before dealing with a transmission issue, you must first have a decent running engine. the engine had no rpm input and the entire shindig was fubard. no trans comp needed. problem solved... total time less than 2 hours. total cost $80 for the sensor 2 hrs time $120. saved way more than that from anywhere else.

i contracted with a customer to do an engine swap. roughly 2 10 hour days at $40 an hour. weather was rain of an on so it took a bit longer. i had borowed $300 from the person earlier so it would make $500. i asked for an advance and got $200. after all that time this misfire code came up during testing. already tired, and it raining, i quickly swaped spark plugs from the engine. the code wasn't so simp[le. and i was too tired and frustrated to chase down why. besides it had nothing to do with me swapping a junkyard engine wich is eactly what i contracted for and exactly what i did. they became upset and worse. and didnt pay me the other $300....i did my duty, and well now they're no longer my customers .... ever...
