'99 250 v-10 Started!!!

For those of you that read my earlier post..I searched hi and low for the problem.I first looked at the fuel system>saftey shut off,pump,filter,injectors,pressure,no luck there..Next I started looking for a spark,none was found,so I had to start looking at sensors,after looking at everything I could find and getting very dirty i.e.(was stuck in some mud.) I noticed a large amount of mud under a/c compressor and packed between compressor and block,started digging in there and found the problem....
The wire plug to the crankshaft position sensor had been damaged,made a temporary repair and vooooom,it started with no problem. Now to get the soldering gun out and fix it right.
Untill next time...Thanks Jim

I did read your other posting and was thinking about some sort of water infiltration into the electrical system, coil getting wet, that sort of thing. It's good you found the problem.
