VQ35 swap with VQ30 ECU wont start.
Hello,
After months of reliable service from this engine, it wont start this morning. Car has not been driven in about 3 weeks.
Quick check of things, and trying to not get to dirty... I have 12V at the spark plug, but no spark.
I am thinking one of the sensors that fires the spark plug went bye-bye?
Which sensor controls the spark timing? There is a sensor on the front and back of the crank shaft (seems silly, but that is the way it is).
Do I test the sensors with a scope? or is there a procedure to test it with a meter?
Thanks.

Found the problem... The clearance between the cam sensor and the rear fascia is too close, and it broke the connector off of the sensor. I got it back on, engine started right up!
Thanks for the quick replies!
