I have charged the battery. I checked trouble codes and got only 12 and 55 which I assume is normal. I did have a little trouble getting crank position sensor wire back in position; how can you verify if its OK? With timing lite on coil wire I get a series of flashes, a skip, a series of flashes, etc. With lite on a plug wire I get a flash, pause, flash, pause, etc. Anything to avoid pulling that bleepity bleep trans again!
