Did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed today or what?

Bad headgaskets can mean coolant in the cylinder, and can give you a big spark issue.

You want to try to compare steps for building a motor from zero to setting a cam position sensor. That's just stupid.

So far you've had several offers of ideas and been given step by step instructions on what you need to do. In turn, you say 'no' to things, whine about the fact that YOU skipped a step and screwed it up and then **** and moaned the rest of the thread.

Forgive us for NOT feeling all warm and fuzzy toward the new guy.

*sigh* Testing for a spark will show if there is a spark whether or not the gasket is blown and the cylinder flooded with coolant. Basic troubleshooting.

As for the rest, you'll just have to figure that out for yourself.

Shadow, c'mere big guy!

For the most part, you already had the answers in the OP. You screwed up and there is not starting reference point in a consumer manual. Your best bet is to consult a Ford DEALER and see if they can reference it online or look up a TSB on Oasis.

If people give you an answer that you disagree with, just ignore it. Nobody wants the know it all new guy knocking their dick in the dirt.

Troubleshooting advice from a guy who can't follow step #1 in the instructions. Epic.
