    Try to start up and everything shuts off, electrical

    Yup, I can lock the doors, roll the windows up and down, headlights, etc. and when I try to start it cranks but the timing is off so it's not firing up properly. I'll be removing spark plug number 1 to set it to TDC then I can adjust the CPS accurately and fire her up then change the...

    Yea I am pretty sure that is why, when I did my head gasket I lined up the CPS with TDC and when she first fired up I just sat there in amazement that I did this.

    I am going to set the motor to TDC then adjust the CPS to TDC and go from there I am pretty sure the timing is off because I am not 100% that when I put the CPS back in that it was in the same position as before.

    I got new cables but I have a feeling I have to order the positive cable online since it splits up to 3 cables and the one I have is one cable that I assume goes to the starter?

    If replacing my cables don't work then we'll go from there, don't want to trouble you with driving all the way out here for battery cables lol. I've replaced my head gasket on my own so something as small as battery terminals is no problem but if it's something big then I'll pm you, thanks for...

    I'll just stop by an auto parts store tonight and get new cables and try not to freeze my ass off while changing them.

    I tried pushing something inside of that breaker fuse using a toothpick and didn't feel anything click, so I removed it and leaving it out for awhile. I reconnected a few of the cables I could easily reach with the negative terminal off of the battery and it still shut everything off when I...

    I may go out tonight and re connect the cables I touched and check out that fuse, the only thing really stopping me is the darkness and cold weather.

    My old thermostat housing had a broke bolt for the piece that covers the thermostat itself and connects to the radiator. I only disconnected and touched the O2 Sensor cable, CPS, and all of the cables that connect to the thermostat housing. Maybe I connected one of the sensor cables to the wrong...
