[Shotimes] 3.2 swap problems

[Ian Fisher]

That's ok. =) When I was installing my CPS on my 3.2 a
few weeks ago, I was trying to slip it in sideways
around the shutter on the crank gear. It didn't occur
to me that it sits flush against the oil pump and
slides down. I heard a kinda nasty crunching sound but
I checked the sensor and I don't see any damage. It
may have just been the loom on the wiring harness (I
get overly paranoid and think that I've broken
everything).

Send me your address privately. I need to run to the
PO tomorrow so I'll look for that sprocket and send it
to you Priority mail if I hear back from you in time.
