on the DOHC ZC, the CYLinder position sensor is on the exhaust camshaft - they almost never go bad - probably distributor wiring making it not start - did you get the distributor wired up?

My distributor bearing is bad so the shaft overheats. it eventually killed my sensor. Now i'm throwing a code 8, and I'm in limp mode. It still starts and drives, it's just really slow due to limp mode.
