I do not have an answer but I also have a 1994 Toyota Camry that will not start and has no spark, I swapped out the ignition module to no avail, the distributor and rotor appear fine. Any help
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) on the 4.7L V - 8 engine is bolted to the under side of the right cylinder head at the very front of the motor. It can Not be seen by looking at the engine from the top with the hood open. Access is from the bottom or possibly from the passenger side wheel well with the plastic splash guard removed.
Yes. The vehicle they were installed in (and the options the vehicle had) would dictate the size/capacity of the alternator that was used.
An idle cylinder refers to the state when the engine is not coupled with the drivetrain and with throttle pedal not depressed. There is rotational speed but it is not enough to move the vehicle.
on an older car you put the key on accessery, push a needle in the little hole in the cylinder then turn the key to the left and pull on the key
The ECM or ECU is located inside the vehicle that the engine is installed in. These units are never mounted on the engine.
What work was recently done to the vehicle? An incorrectly installed CMP or CKP sensor could be the culprit, along with a bad coil or misaligned distributor. If the distributor has been recently replaced or removed, ensure that the rotor is pointed at the 8 and not the 6 at #1 cylinder compression TDC. The distributor body has marks so that it can be used in both the Vortec V8 and V6, and installing it incorrectly could cause severe timing advance, which would be made bad enough to stall the vehicle (or damage the engine) when vacuum or electronic advance comes into play
The #1 cylinder should be the first plug clockwise from the electrical connections on an HEI distributor. Or, the first plug clockwise from 3 O'Clock when facing towards the rear of the vehicle.
There should be a mark on the distributor or it's switch plate that indicates where the rotor should point for cylinder 1. If you look at the distributor from the front of the vehicle, the closest center position should be for cylinder 2. Clockwise 1/8 th turn from that should be cylinder 1 position, but double check against the indicator mark that should be present.

what is the cylinder of this vehicle
Depends on the year and vehicle it was installed in.Depends on the year and vehicle it was installed in.
Install timing light on #1 cylinder Remove and plug vacuum advance line from distributor Highlight timing marks crankshaft and stationary Loosen distributor hold down Start vehicle and move distributor to align marks
Unfortunately no, i have found that more times than not your distributor cap will not be marked with the specific firing order of the vehicle, many however do have one visible mark to identify the number one cylinder

Every picture I have seen for the 2.8 liter V6 engine in a Ford Ranger shows : The # 1 position on the distributor cap faces towards the REAR and slightly towards the PASSENGER side of the vehicle ( just to the left of the rear distributor cap clip or screw when you are looking from the front of the vehicle ) The distributor rotor turns CLOCKWISE The firing order is ( 1 - 4 - 2 - 5 - 3 - 6 ) The engine cylinder locations are numbered : firewall 3 - 6 2 - 5 1 - 4 front of vehicle
The ignition coil pack is bolted to the cylinder head left side when facing the car from front bumper. It's on the cylinder head closest to the front bumper as well. This vehicle does not have an actual distributor because there are 3 ignition coils that fire at the proper time (if you're interested it's called the waste-spark method). The multiple ignition coils eliminate the need for a distributor.
The number 1 position on the distributor cap of a Ford 5.0 liter / 302 is : It faces to the REAR and towards the number 7 engine cylinder ( in every picture I have seen in repair manuals ) The engine cylinder locations are numbered : firewall 4 - 8 3 - 7 2 - 6 1 - 5 front of vehicle
