    The fuel pressure I'm assuming is normal, haven't checked it as I can feel the relay, hear the pump, and my injectors were just tested a few months ago and fuel delivery seemed to be fine.
    Either way, as for now I need to know why it isn't sparking.

    And yeah, I seem to pick whatever I can that'll make it a little more difficult or confusing. ha.
    Thanks for the replies everyone.

    Have you checked the resistance from the PTU connector back to the ECU connector?

    Nope, haven't checked the PTU wiring yet because someone reminded me to check for codes and I got that cam/crank code so I focused on those and other misc things I need to do. I can go through the PTU wiring tomorrow though.

    Seems I had a post disappear. I saw you used a 91 SL ECU so I assumed you were a 91-92 car. Seeing how you are a 93 the crank sensor is mounted behind the crank pulley. Sorry for the confusion.

    Actually I was going to ask you about that Corey, because I had gotten the notification email, but I couldn't see it... well, it's the first post.
    I don't know how you did it but you jacked my thread, and posted that in 1969, seriously, go check it out. First post of the thread. LMAO
    Awesome.

    So I guess I'm just on a dumb streak and am asking before I look, my apologies to everyone, but I'm a computer tech. not a car mechanic, just not 100% confident I'm doin' stuff right. Anyways, timing jumped, figured I'd have to take it to a shop but I guess I'm just gonna' get all the rest of the tools I need and take my time and do it myself. After I fix the timing/cams, and that sensor (and replace the outer belt on the harmonic balancer) I'll post back with update if all my problems are fixed. I've been dumping money into this misfire/sputter/randomly running like crap... I'm guess my timing has been slightly off since I bought it and I've just been knocking it farther out, guessing from the distance off, and that my belt has all it's teeth. Sometimes I wish I didn't always learn things the hard way... lol

    And whoever said I was gonna' break stuff, I take back my comment and admit you're right. I guess I shoulda' checked that long before, possibly could've avoided a few issues (or fixes that didn't fix).
    Anyways thanks a lot for all the help, any hints/tips on the timing? Reading old posts on the old site, seems to be fairly straight-forward.

    Ah, thank you sir. I thought that something got trashed when the timing jumped, I couldn't remember what it was though as I had no real reason to until now.
    Spent plenty of hours reading the old forum, wish I would've retained more of that info. And at that I apologize again if I've annoyed anyone, I've kind of annoyed myself with the content of the thread. But thank you very much to anyone who posted and tried to help aside from how dumb I'm thinking I look at this point.
    Well, I guess now the real fun starts, and I really experience what it's like to be broke.

    Just saying, I KNOW what I am doing, and I have been all of my intake valves twice. Don't feel so bad. Some how I can't even seem to get the exhaust to bend? Non-interference exhaust valves?
