Rudy, Thanks for the call last night. My uncle called right after you and we were up late on the phone studying Crossfire wiring diagrams. Per the Star DAS system everything is fine and it should start. Everything is happy and we cannot get it to produce any fault codes. The tranmission control module is displaying the shifter position just fine. We have decided to hook it up to DRBIII and see if we can find something wrong in the anti-theft system. When we turn the key you can hear all the familiar noises under the hood but we will take the engine cover off and verify the TB movement you mentioned. Robert Krause is running around right now trying to borrow a DRBIII tool as he doesn't usually work on Chyrslers or Chizlers as he call them. We will also be rechecking the wiring to see if we cuased any problems when we made a few splices to adapt the V8 harness, but those functions should not prevent the engine from starting. We went through "drive authorizatipon" in DAS and it seemed to work fine with no errors but when it says to start car... nothing. Robert Krause feels we are very close and will find the problem soon. I wish we did have a fualt code as that would at least tell us what is wrong.
