For months I have had I intermediate battery drain. Sometimes I could go for weeks without a issue and some days I would need a jump three or four times.
I changed my alternator, starter and went through several batteries. Also change my distributor cap button and wires and plugs along the way.
I am now at a complete no start. Along the way I have found that ho2s bank 2 Sensor 2 was the wrong sensor installed and was back feeding the ground through the system's the entire time. I searched and searched and searched for this negative ground feed and never could find it.
When my nose start began the engine would turn over and fire for just a moment. I replace the crankshaft position sensor and now it is just a complete no start with turning the motor over continually with no fire or gas. Two separate scanners cannot connect to the OBD2 and I am at a complete loss as to what else to check.

Good morning.

Does the check engine light come on with key on, engine off?

Does it go off when cranking?

Does the tachometer move up when cranking?

Do you have spark?

Do you have fuel pressure?

Sorry for all the questions, trying to get a grip on whether the PCM is working.
