Im stuck n wondering which direction 2 take i got a 99 xjr...shut off going down the road got it home found no spark had a code p1336 put in a new cam sensir on the left side head rechecked for spark and no i got spark but still no start. In stalled new spark plugs old ones were fouled out but now after i crank it over u can still see the gas on the tips the only code i got now is p1000...
new 2 the site thanks 4 any input

 

Perhaps nikasil cylinder wash down while trying to start with no spark? Is it cranking over a bit faster than normal?

 

thats wat i was thinking so i had the pedal to the floor several times n still no luck

 

I miss punctuation!

I would say normal speed crank n i can hear like the "combustion" in the exhaust.
? could the timing be off ?

 

Yes you could have a cylinder wash problem but I would check the fuel pressure first. The pressure should be 42 +/- a few. Please check it to be sure. My neighbor told me that he had fuel and proceeded to show me. He opened the valve on the fuel rail and fuel came out but not with force. Put my gauge on it and found low pressure. Replaced the pump and he was back on the road again. You say you have spark and no other codes is that correct?

 

Yes GUS that is correct as of now(after i replaced the cam sensor due to P1336)....n i will check fuel psi on my next

 

With Jags you never know.....hope your fuel pumps haven't went out...dont keep cranking it, it will cause more issues....have someone look @ it

 

well guys ive installed both pumps n cam sensor...psi is good n ive got spark but still no start. Now im really lost..

 

Well, when I have spark, compression and fuel pressure, the last thing to check is if fuel is getting to the cylinders. If I were in this position, I'd spray some starting fluid through the throttle body and see if the engine trys to run for a second or two... if so, you know that somethings up with the injectors.

But I don't think you've checked compression yet, have you? Compression gauges are quite inexpensive. Nikasil washdown or a timing chain issue will show up in a compression test.
