    Hi guys.
    Finaly I've found the problem on my '95 Cirrus. (big thanks Ted, chrysler
    should really consider you, if it's not already done, you were right on the
    money;) )
    It was the crankshaft position sensor. I've replaced it and there is spark.
    Problem is the engine still won't start.
    I've checked the fuel pressure and it's good. Also, the sparkplugs are a bit
    wet, so I'm thinking flooded engine. I've taken out the sparkplugs and i'll
    wait untill tomorow to try again.
    From what I know the engine only needs Spark, Fuel and Timing. I have the
    first two, tomorow I'll check the third one.
    I've did a code check on the engine and I'm getting error 24, the throttle
    sensor. However, if I'm right, the engine should start anyways, regardless.
    Crankshaft sensor was replaced, and the camshaft sensor should also be good
    since I'm getting sparks and the distributor it's good, as it's inside the
    distributor)
    I'll also check the compression tomorow, but I doubt it (and I hope it's
    not).
    I hope it's the timing. The belt it's ok, but maybe it's missaligned. (I had
    to take it out , I had to change my water pump also). I've alligned it as
    per haynes manual. However, maybe I did a mistake and it's misaligned.
    Anybody knows any other possible causes as to why the engine won't even try
    starting? (it cranks, but no sign of wanting to start).
    any help or guess is much appreciated.
    thanks.

    ps: sorry for the spelling.

    Be very sure about right timing on 2.5 V6 and 2.7 V6 engines before you will
    turn it on. These are interference engines.
