Re: SVX won't start after accident

I used an OBDII scanner on it and it there were no codes. There was gas being delivered, at least, to beyond the gas filter. I didn't pull a spark plug yet as I only had a few minutes to spend today. I don't see any vacuum lines knocked off. I checked electrical connectors around the engine and they appear OK. The battery wasn't displaced and the cam sensor wasn't hit. Externally, at least the connectors on the cam sensor and crank sensors seem OK and there's no evidence that they were hit or disrupted. I pulled out a crank sensor from my parts car and it looks pretty nondescript. What do I look for physically that would indicate that it's bad. By the way, I was told that it cranks only. It does seem to want to start for 1 second and then it only cranks. If it's left for a while, it will do the same thing.
