    crank angle sensor - make sure the wiring is in place or u havent knocked it out of place - it sits behind the harmonic ballancer nd causes all sorts of dramas id look there first

    did u get the right harmonic ballancer for the car - my mate had a vp engine in his vn and got the wrong one - was a problem and car diidnt start - needed engine number to get the right ballancer - fired straight up then - on another note - if the crank angle sensor is buggerd its terminal - car wont start .... and they are easy to break

    I have a vr harmonic balancer running on my vn series one, works a treat.

    have u tightened and pushed the harmonic balancer all the way back?
