Supra lost spark pt2

March 30th, 2009

The igniter came today.  Shane installed it, which only took a few minutes.  He started the car and

 it ran good.  He test drove it around the block and parked it.  When he went to restart it, nothing!  He checked and not spark.  He ran his checks again and the Cam Position Sensor (CPS) still showed that it was out of specification.  He decided to try starting the engine again.  Unexpectedly the engine started.  When he shut it off and tried to restart it, nothing.  He noticed that each time he used the ohm meter to measure the resistance in the CPS, the engin would start afterwards.  He came to the conclusion that the CPS must have some kind of short in it.  He surfed the net and found a used CPS for $140.  Since a new one costs $500, he ordered it.
