      update:checked the cam and crank circuits-ok,reconected all conector up and down with no luck,so t i tryed caveman method, sprayed starting fluid start the car and pumped pedal as mutch as i can to the bottom.car runs fine on high rpms(4000-5000)after that everything looks normal,but when i start drivin from stop gently pushing pedal everything ok,if accelerating fast looks like engine going stall but after second starting gain speed,no codes!!!hmm still going have fun with it,will keep updated.get acces to mitchell on demand,so if somebody needs something like schematics or etc pm me.ach one more think clock somethimes turns off(loses power?)still not sure i have mechanical(sensor,ecu)or electrical(bad connection)problem.mystery car hehe

      You say less than 30K miles? You still have your Warranty for the engine I am sure (if you bought it certified or are the original owner)
