What is your question?
Bought a ford probe not running. Guy we bought it from thought it was the distributer cap and rotor so we replaced those two. We also replaced the crank shaft position sensor and we have a fat spark so we know its not the sensor. There is pressure in the fuel line so we don't think its a fuel problem. Spark plugs were also replaced. We are exasperated with this car. Any help?

Compression? --TESTED with gauge? Timing? Verified visually? Fuel pressure/injector pulse-TESTED?
I was having problems with mine stalling and not starting.. it was the EGR sensor located on the firewall.. i think theres a group of 3 sensors there.. there was a rotted vac hose there too which we replaced.. running great now
We haven't tested any of that I know of but getting life out of it now. Adjusted the rotor and its now violently backfiring. But still not starting up
Valve timing , or valve problem....nevermind............
We found out we did have a timing problem. Someone replaced the timing belt and didn't line it up correctly. It was off by 2 teeth. So we got that fixed but still won't start. My uncle came and looked at it and said it was my fuel pump. Before we drop the tank we wanted to make sure you he shut off switch hadn't been sprung. We found where we think its supposed to be but not sure :/ we aren't sure how to reset it either if it needs to be reset
