      Well everyone, I finally found the problem. Hooked up the scan tool and spun the engine. Sure enough it threw a code for the cam sensor.

      I didn’t understand that you could get a code even if the engine was not running. So I picked up a cam sensor stuck it in and “Viola” she started. Lots a white smoke and ran rough for about 5 min. Then it cleared up and seemed to run fine. Took it down the road and then checked for codes. No codes so I hope it is all well now. I guess time will tell.

      I do not know what caused the sensor to fail. Am keeping fingers crossed that it just wore out. If there is something I need to check so it doesn’t happen again right away, please let me know.

      I want to thank each one of you for your amazing help with this thing. You are all to be commended ! What an awsome forume!
