need help on my 91 v6 camaro

i cant seem to get my camaro to run it will turn over it has spark,air and it gets fuel to the injetors i thought they might be plugged or nnot getting power so i took it to a local shop had them check it out they told me there is no reason for my car not to run and that everything is is working the way it should so after searching for months and replacing every senor/relay i am still with the same problem the only senor i have not replaced is the crankshaft senor and that is cus many people have told me that my year/model does not have one i have searched for it and cant seem to find it and thats leads me to belive that it doesnt have one.



if anyone knows why it wont start or knows where this senor is please post it has been 6months of searching and im about to give up and have it crushed

Re: need help on my 91 v6 camaro

OK, your equivilent to a crankshaft sensor is in the distributor, the pickup coil. If it were bad, you wouldn't have spark, so therefore, it has to be good.

What were the condition under which it quit running, was it sitting for a while? Was it running and then just quit?

I would never take another car to that shop again BTW. If they say that there is no reason that it shouldn't run and it still doesn't, it's fairly obvious that there's something wrong.

What is the actual fuel pressure?
Is fuel actually exiting the injectors?
What is your cranking vacuum?
Does the motor just turn over or does it have an attempt to start?
Any popping noises?

No starts always have a basic, underlying problem. You just have to take the time to go through each step and find it.
