Hi, I tested the coil as the first thing I did, it had also recently been changed by the previous owner for that of a 1.6 lantra, it appears to be ok.
The CMP Sensor is the bit that confuses me at the moment, I removed the CKP Sensor and obvioulsy the car wouldnt start! But when I disconnected the CMP Sensor it did start and it carried on firing cylinders 1 & 4 as before with nothing on 2 & 3. You have said before that if either fail it shouldn't work, but it appears to have no effect?
If either of the sensors were up the creak would the ECM not realise and show an engine fault light on the dash?
All help very welcome, I am a bit of a novice mechanic so I feel a bit up against it at the moment!
Thanks
