ahhh. i forgot it was a 3.4, sorry bout that. there are a few attachments in this thread that show the 93 3.4 and it looks similar to what dc14 is showing.

THANK YOU, craby and everyone else that helped out... it look's like my "24x crankshaft position sensor" but to make sure ill tell you guy's how i tested it and make sure because wiring isnt my best subject... alright, i un-plugged the connector (pink & black wire) from the ignition control module and hooked the ohm meter to each wire and it read about 6.7 ohm everytime with the ignition off, with the ignition on it read 14.2 ohm, and the AC voltage is .1 and DC is 10.... so is that a bad sensor (i dont know were to find the specs)...

The way I read the flow chart, your ohm meter (set to 2K ohms) should be connected between the A and B terminals and any reading outside the 900 -1200 ohm range would indicate a bad crank sensor.

If it passes the ohm test, then you set your meter to AC voltage and measure between A and B as the engine is being cranked. You should see an AC voltage of greater than .1 VAC. If you do then your crank sensor is good and it would point to your ICM as being the fault.

So you are saying you are reading a 14.2 ohm. That would be outside the 900 to 1200 ohm range. That would be the specs the book is calling for when doing the test.

so my ohm range is bad BUT my VAC while cranking is good.... so does that mean it's a good or bad sensor??

thanks for the extra chart's craby, i still don't understand them but it could just be that im real tired right now... ill read over them tommorow and test the car some more...

thanks "dc14u2no" yeah this is my 3rd camaro so far (first 4th gen.) and they never make it easy on me something always goes wrong... probly because i like a fixer upper... this is the first camaro ive had with this many electronics that's why this is puzzling me so much... im more of an old school camaro guy...

so on the chart it looks like the cam sensor and the 24x crank sensor tie in to each other, is that me or do they?

u use a photobucket account and then copy the img code to your post like this. if u use the quote button on this post ull see the img code instead of the picture.

i think it might be my fuel pump going out,or the sensors and pump because i can't hear the pump turn on when i turn the key to the on position OR after i get done turning it over like it used to.. my grandfather said a few days ago that it sounded like it would build up pressure and might not keep pressure as im turning it over..?... but then again when i spray starter fluid in the intake it doesnt change anything... so who know's...
this would be 1000,000,000,000 TIMES easier if i had a code reader
