    (prizm=toyota)he wants the output that is the coil ohms, the coil ohms test only tells you if the coil is dead open. not if it generate a true pulse. ( only a scope works here, and DTC 0340) the ckp on most this era cars is a very small signal...b 1.6 L 4A-FE (L01) I4 1.8 L 7A-FE (LV6) I4 notice the toyota codes there? i looked both and they are both coil type sensor not HALL. crank the enigne over with the OBD2 (any) scan tool plugged in, for 5 seconds cranking and see if you get 340s,335,336 DTCs, bingo, huh? IT will tell you what sensor is bad, why guess? now i will show way 2, a scope.

    the ECU/PCM is fully capable of tell you which sensor is bad. even 1 pulse in 10 or so. why not scan the ECU?

Its a 5v square wave.

you can see that at alldata dot com.

the 1996 will throw a DTC for CMP , DID IT?
if engine is dead, the DTC shows up cranking,
with a code or RPM dead.
In USA< can speak for Canada, where are you, uSA or canada.

The Prism is actually a Corolla, so you can use info for either model. You should have a main or EFI relay that powers the computer and the fuel pump relay. The engine computer powers the pump relay if it sees oil pressure or RPM.
Have you checked the EFI relay and the pump relay for power, and will the engine run if you bypass either relay ?

96 geo prizm is burning oil. what is the problem?

Depending on the mileage, worn piston rings are the most likely cause. There are also numerous places on these engines that leak - valve cover gasket, distributor seal, cam seal and oil pan are the most common. You can try a heavier weight oil the next oil change. If you're current using 10W30, try switching to 10W40.
