2001 dodge ram has fuel, spark, compression, wont fire...any ideas?

DarkoStoj

A mysterious figure named Darko
5.2l engine, 189k

I checked spark at #1 cylinder and it was there

fuel pressure is good, verified with gauge

plugs look wet

engine sound turning over sounds good, tested compression with gauge on #1 and was fine

I'm out of ideas...anyone?
 
What about the camshaft position sensor? Its another notorious problem with those motors. Its a circular disk inside the distributor. Its not called a CPS its called a Distributor Pickup Assembly. Also try changing the timing. You can move the distributor a few degrees each way on those motors.
 
scanner is picking up both the cam and crank signals.

i'm going to check to see if the exhaust is clogged next

anyone know what the ASD circuit actually cuts?
 
Im pretty sure the ASD relay gets its power from the ECM and gives power to the fuel pump and ignition coil. Not 100% though.
