Re: Engine re-installed, no start

Since then I haven't gotten any sign of life out of it, not even a sputter. Has fuel and spark but won't catch. Tried a little bit of starting fluid but nada. Double checked all the sensors but they're new and hooked up correctly?

Anybody have any suggestions?
I worry I will have the same problem when I put mine back in but could be timing, you say you have spark but if you used starter fluid and it won't ignite doesn't make much sense. Are you certain you have spark? Check your connections at the ignitor since you disconnected it. Have you checked for fault codes?
