KV6 2.5 petrol. I have replaced the thermostat, verified no leaks and flushed and filled cooling system. The water pump pumps water and the engine only has 17k miles on it. Verified thermostat opened at 180F as designed prior to replacement. Air is purged from coolant lines and the level is...

Well, $700 and a refurbished and coded ECU has not fixed my problem yet. Still have to cycle through the other 3 positions on the flexplate to verify for sure. Assuming still no luck in the other 3 positions, does anyone have any other suggestions other than selling or scrapping this project...

Any other suggestions? ECU? Which one, and where it may be located? Still no luck for spark.

Thanks for the heads up. I will bite the bullet and go ahead and fill the fluids.

I am no longer getting fault codes after clearing them. No fault codes came back while cranking the engine. I am not sure if it is pertinent or not, but my transmission is drained as well as the coolant. I didn't see anything on the wiring diagram that correlates the issue to this.

I replaced the sensor for the torque converter and rotated and bolted the flexplate in all 4 positions. Good news is I am getting better at fitting my hand and aligning boots in that small opening for the flexplate. Bad news, well, I still have no spark/fire. Any other suggestions? Is it...

Thanks for the information on the flexplate. The engine was not firing before I removed the old engine also. So I bought a replacement sensor just in case and will cycle the flexplate through the other 3 positions and see if I have any luck. I won't be able to be to it for a few days but I...

Yes, I am using the original pair.

By flex plate are you referring to the flywheel?

The entire engine was replaced to include associated sensors and plug wires with it. There was nothing to bolt to the torque converter other than the 4 bolts with the flywheel. If you would like for me to introduce myself just in order to get some help, feel free to ask me anything you want...

I just recently replaced the engine in my freelander (a gift and bigger project than I had intended)after a timing belt mishap on his part. Engine is complete and installed. Turn over the engine and it cranks wonderfully but with no spark from the plugs. Coil connectors show close to 12 volts...
