Miss firing on 1, 3 5 cylinders

Hi, if you have been talking to somebody, if you reply on the comment link, they will know your asking another question. As far as firing order, whatever cylinder would have to be on compression stroke.
I don't know year--make--model?

Fuel filter,vaccum leak,plug gap.

P1371 Missing Low Resolution Signal

If your car is off a single tooth on the Timing Belt, you will have continued problems... you need to verify the timing is on. If the timing is off, reset it and then proceed if the problem returns

I did have a problem with a defective Cam Shaft Sensor and replacing it with another Defective Sensor....

your crank position sensor does not read individual cylinders, only the position of the crank shaft. make sure the plugs and wires are good, check the spark coming from the coil, make sure there are no vacuum leaks at intake manifold, check timing, then do a leak down test to make sure you don't have a bent or damaged valve in the cylinder head.

Battery Charged ?

Battery leads tight and clean?

Checked Engine earth ?

If all OK then motor probably got some **** on the brush gear get sombody to help you, firmly apply hand brake.... ENSHURE IS IN NUTRAL OR PARK!
while they hold kek in crank position tap the starter motor with a hammer to free the crrap... that shuld do it!

Have A Great Day.......Bruce

timeing jumped? fireing order is 1-3-4-2 this is corect! these cars use platinum plugs supper frisky!!!! why i ask timeing is fact you state you wore out starter not good!i see so many timetimes people burn out starters and pushing gas while cranking in desperate atempt to get it started that is a good was to jump timeing however you have a chain on it!!!not a timeing belt but i would check fire order then take it from that point good luck ,John

Check timing belt,sounds like belt may have skipped.

Hi there,

Have a few questions.
You said you had fire. Is this true on all cylinders?

Is there any backfiring?

Pull the distributor cap and have someone crank it for you.
Is the rotor spinning?

Pull the plug on cylinder 1. Stuff a rag in the hole. Crank slowly until the rag pops out. The engine should be on or very close to Top Dead Center.
Which plug wire is the rotor facing (distibutor)?

I have my suspicions.
Get back to me with the results to confirm and proceed.
Mike
