Message:
I have a 96 3.9l, and I gutted the cat a couple days ago, and after I was done and put the exhaust back on my truck wouldnt start, the engine will crank over fine but wont start, I checked today and the spark plugs arnt firing?! When i gutted the cat i broke a 02 sensor but have replaced it now and still wont run. And there is no check engine light on.

Is there anyway to tell if the crank sensor is bad w/o the truck starting?

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Exhaust work(cutting/welding) is one of many things that you should disconnect the battery for to avoid any sort of short...........to avoid frying the pcm or other componets. You did do that??
