Hi.
 
2.3 Has camshaft position sensor. How does it work? Does changins camshafts to different model affect in somehow?
 
Am I right that Crankshaft position sensor is only used when starting engine, and then when it´s running, camshaft position sensor takes place of it.

My guess is that the crankshaft sensor is for the sparks (coils fire on both strokes so no need for half speed sensor) & the camshaft sensor is for timing of the injectors.

look at the cams you took off, one cam (exhaust side i think) will have an extra bit of metal thats also machined / ground like the cam lobes, thats the cam sensor pick up lobe

from memory it's a smaller cam shaped lobe, but i could be thinking of the 24v, where does the cam sensor sit on the side of the cylinder head, front or rear of the engine? if both sets of cams are identical (apart from lobe profile) then i see no reason for it not to start
 
just to clear up any confusion, does the car crank over but not fire? or is it completely dead?
 
have you fitted the fuel injector multi plug correctly, can sensor plugged in?

It should start & run quite happily with the cam sensor disconnected. – mine does, just tried it to make sure.

My scorp have now been running with rs2000 cams  Cheesy
 
Highly recommended mod Wink
 
Stock ecu can cope with them just fine. But I predict bigger (than 177cc@2.7bar) injectors or increased fuel pressure would give more Nm to High rpm's. Now it feels just more torquer at part throttle and low-mid rpms.
 
On my buy list is rs2000 or SR20DE/KA24DE (is down adjusted 270cc @3bar ->x too big?) sidefeed injectors and fuel pressure regulator kit for adapting stock reg -> adjustable.

So, as a conclusion, the RS2000 camshafts will fit a 2.3 engine, without other modifications?

There is NO need to run 2 ECU's its a bloody nightmare  Shocked
 
If RS2000 ECU is external PATS no need to keep the 2.3 ECU, cos it'll start and run on RS2000 ECU with Scorpio's External PATS Module and Scorpio Key  Wink
 
Even If RS2000 ECU is an internal PATS they aren't that hard to wire up, but you'd need RS2000 Key Reader, and Key to go with it as a set Wink

Exactly, at best it'll run in Limp Mode without it  Wink

To clarify I was suggesting disconnecting the sensor to test if it was receiving the signal incorrectly, not as a solution. However my 2.3 runs perfectly without it – whatever strategy is used it definitely is limping. Wink
