Car stopped all of a sudden.
After having a look I found that the harmonic balancer bolt had come loose.
I have replaced the bolt and have put a new crank angle sensor on.
Car has rule and spark but will not fire.
Can some body please help?

Hi,

If you have spark and fuel, it should run. Are you sure nothing was touched with the cam sensors? Do me a favor, see if it starts with starting fluid for a couple seconds. If it does, then we know it is fuel related. Or, check to see if there is an injector pulse. Here is a link that explains how it is done.

Let me know what you find. Also, I don't know if there is a difference, but I only have access to the Montero model of this vehicle. In the US, they don't offer a Mitsubishi Challenger. However, they should be very similar. I'll try my best to help.
