Hi Luis. It's not clear from your post whether the car's engine will run or not. Please provide more detailed information about what the cars doe's or doe's not do. If it won't start, judging from your description, it reminds me of the time a C900 16 valve ('87 in fact) stopped running without warning and I found that the "tooth" which keys the exhaust cam sprocket to the cam had sheared off. Unfortunately that resulted in bent valves. The cars owner said that it just stopped running without a peep and coasted to the side of the road. The engine would crank and gave no outward evidence that the exhaust cam was off. You can determine if the exhaust cam is off index by examining the ignition rotor timing, which is keyed to the ex. cam. For the intake you must peek at the key on the cam. If you have bent valves re-post and you'll get some interesting moneysaving advice. Good luck, hope that it's just a loose Hall-effect connector or something.
