Have you checked for spark yet? Also did you check actual fuel pressure or that fuel was just coming out of the fuel line?

Pulled codes getting p0335. Nice blue spark off of plugs and compression is good. I know code is for crank position sensor now need to know location of the sensor and how to get to it

It under the timing belt cover by the crankshaft so I would be sure its bad before you replace it. You can test it with a multi meter do you have one?

If you had one we could test it before you go thru all that work of changing it. Does your scanner read live data? If you clear the code does it come right back after trying to start it?

I would start by checking the wires to the crankshaft sensor for damage and check the sensor with a multi meter.
