Need help with Ignition problem (w/ video)

[Tobra350]

Sounds like there is no fireing going on. Could it be the coil pack? or spark plugs? Any thoughts after viewing the video? Thanks for the help[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_1Bhp1zJNE"]YouTube - IMG 0514[/ame] this is a 97 cobra btw

if thats a 4.6 then you either have a dead battery or no compression. it doesnt even sound promising. video would of helped to be longer

That sounds like a broken timing chain.........
Pull the oil cap and have someone crank the engine. Watch for the cams turning. Hopefully they are..:??:

Sounds good I will try this in the morning. Ps it's not the battery as we tried to jump start it and that didn't help. Sounds like it's not even turning over.

Ok I checked down the oil drain while cranking the engine, and the cams are turning, which leads me to believe its not the timeing chain. (does this also rule out the starter) Also we unplugged one wire from the coil pack and there was a spark. I'm thinking it could be the cam sensor or the crank sensor. Any other sugestions? Thanks for the help...

are you throwing any codes? have spark. check for fuel pressure? might have a bad fuel pump?

 

[Tobra350]

It does have a spark, and the fuel pump does turn on with they Key, Not throwing any codes

 

[mcaligiuri]

do a compression check, that thing sounds like no compression, could of broke a keyway or something

Well I just got it back from the shop and they said it was flooded with fuel. Aparently an injector had a small leak and flooded one valve. Quick fix. But now i need to replace the regulator and injectors so it doesn't happen again.
