Right

Well check the back right hand corner of teh plenum, you should see a small solenoid with a 2 pn connector and some vac hoses on it.

Make sure its plugged in and there is no damage to it.

If you look at the following picture which is a shot of the rear of the engine, you will see the item bolted to the back of the plenum...

I wonder if it was damaged/disconnected whilst the crank sensor was being changed.
