Still unsure as to why that would throw all 6 injector fault codes.

The cam sensor plays a role with the fuel injector timing too doesnt it?

Confirmed the only code I am getting currently is a P0340.

By another round of clear code, and crank until code appears

Well I can manage to get the car to run extremely rough.
When i give it some gas to start it.

But give it anymore throttle and it bucks and does not run well. Almost sounds like the timing is off really bad.

What the heck could be going on I will try to upload a video

Did you say you put in a new OEM Mopar Crank Postion Sensor?

Mate...you've got a cluster F*** on your hands. Too much dicking around with too many circuits/systems all at one time. Your XJ can't possibly be that dicked up!

Yea the Crank sensor was new about a month ago,

Now I replaced the CAM sensor with a OEM mopar one.
My mistake if I misnammed it.

But I cannot handle the stress of this anymore. Hopefully my friend can figure it out lol

Well believe it or not. FINALLY got it figured out.

It was actually the oil pump drive/ cam synchronizer originally.

Somehow the PCM also got damaged in the mess of this crap.
So I bought a new PCM from

Auto Computer Exchange in Flordia, I would highly recommend them if anyone needs one!
They reprogrammed the pcm to work with my skim, in total was $140!!

Anyways, after giving up all hope the first auto repair shop I brought it to was
Brewer Auto and Tire in Schaumburg Illinois.
NEVER BRING YOUR CAR HERE EVER!!

While replacing my PCM they had told me they "repaired" the pcm plug.
After about a week of the same situation I told them I dont care give me the car.

I towed it up the street to my buddies shop,
and after a week guess what?
THE PCM PLUG WAS DAMAGED, and the pins were not in the connector correctly.


So final diagnostic? A shop that has little experience that told me they understood what was going on.
Beware where you bring you car these days.

I am wondering how I can prove this first shop is at fault?

Only proof I have of this happening it a witness that was with me that heard brewer telling me they "repaired" the plug.

I owe my friend $600 for the 5 days of hard work he put into this thing.

Does anybody know if my case would hold up in small claims court?
