CAS plugged in?

The CAS locates on a half-moon key. Sometimes, the half in the end of the camshaft breaks off, which means the CAS can be installed in the wrong orientation.

yeh id bet CAS plug isnt plugged in right.

I recently had a similar problem with my car running and then randomly cutting out, and then not starting. It was caused by a bent metal shim sitting behind the CAS and broken CAS mounts which in turn was causing massive timing issues. If you haven't already used a timing light that would be my first bet. Furthermore I would take it down to your local dyno and get a run, and set the (I assume its adjustable) correct retardation for your setup (mine is currently 2 deg negative on the inlet).

the cas is plugged in and i have been extremely carefully not to damage the key inside.

i think i have worked it out.
