    Did you tell your mechanic up front that you had a 3.2 wheel in your 3.5 and that you'd jerry-rigged the crank sensor? If you didn't I think you have an uphill battle on your hands to blame him.

    yes i did. but i had no idea about the crank marks being 180 degrees wrong. i told him i was told the only difference was in the reluctor wheel.

    how can that be?
