Thread: Replaced PUMA 2.4 clutch > Won't fire

**** thats bad.
My guess is that you knocked a fuel hose off.
Check hoses

Wiring /plug at Crank angle sensor damaged or not plugged in enough most likely..

Hi Justin
Not come across that before. Actually, l'm not even too sure where it is. I have been thinking l have missed an earth lead or something? Are there 2 on the transfer?
I definitely got the one on the pass side at the back. Cant recall if there was another one on the drivers side?

Thanks so much
Michael

The drivers side has earth point too. The crank sensor and it's wiring is at 1 o'clock when viewed from the back, looking towards the flywheel. You would have had to remove a small tin heat shield and unplug it to remove the transmission. The later 2.2 the wiring is routed very slightly differently and you can leave it plugged in, just watch it when refitting transmission

Hi Justin
Yep. I know the one. That tin shield is a pig.
How do l set the sensor? It is on a slot yes? I have obviously not put it back in properly?

Thanks

Did you actually remove the sensor, or unplug it??

Hi Justin
We removed it from out of the housing yeah.

Unfortunately the sensor is one use only. This is due to the airgap setting procedure, the new sensors have a sacrificial tip, you push it into the holder until it touches on a raised signal tooth, and when engine is started the tip wears off to give you the required airgap. You will maybe get lucky by loosening sensor and pushing it in against a tooth, then retracting it about 1mm, although I'd be taking it out and inspecting the tip first. It may be already damaged 😥
