    Hey everyone I just changed my timing belt, head gaskets, and put some TRD headers on but now after getting it all together I'm having a no spark issue. I checked the igniter, coil packs, spark plugs, cam and crank position sensors, ground wires and can't find anything. I’m definitely getting fuel though so that’s good. Anyone got any ideas or tips on what to check next?

    How did you verify the crank position sensor is good?

    Used a multimeter to check the ohms

    I actually did. It was the stupidest thing. So when I bought a new crank position sensor it came with an o ring around the base, and I’m not sure if you’re supposed to remove it but mine wouldn’t seat all the way down so I removed it and she started right up.
