Check the error codes.

There may be a sensor unplugged and the codes will tell you what's wrong.

thanx....we'll try ...

Quick check
 
Just check your fuses before anything else. Sometimes they are hard to see, I had a similar problem though mine was a bad wire leading into the inside fuse box. Steve

Could be a weak battery, poor ground, or a faulty ignition switch. Also check the wires to the battery.

Ok , for now the code for : Cam sensor pop up.... We're trying to put her up again but , i got stolen ... long story.... we found the SVX in a garage with all its pieces but, the guy wasnt there , nor my 3000$ ... :mad: I'll chain him behind my SVX and put the pedal to the metal until there's nothing left...:mad:

probobly the cam sensor on the driver's side of the valve covers... easy fix, just buy a new sensor and take 5 mins to install it

Sounds like a bit more, than just the cam sensor. Sorry.:(

yes Harvey, it is just the cam sensor... It has happened to me and it happened to Shotgunslade... There are no precursers, the sensor just quits. It will chug for a sec and then die because of the spark being sent WAY too late. I will garentee that is the issue with the information he has supplied us with... He said he is getting spark and fuel. He also mentioned it sounded like the engine wanted to turn over but wouldn't... typical of a bad cam angle sensor
