Plug leads in right order?

R u trying to say reverse the firing order which is 3421? So 1243 is what you recommend ?

i have no reading on rev counter when trying to start car ! Points towards crank sensor not reading flywheel !

Was it running before the timing belt change? it Seems odd that the crank sensor to wait till now to fail - checked the connector is plugged in properly? 

How did you do the timing belt? You knew to turn the engine over twice to check the timing, if you were a tooth or even a couple of teeth out the engine would run, but not well.  Assuming it’s a 16v did you use a proper tool to lock the cams for the small belt?

Did you mark the old belt and factory marks and copy them to the new belt counting teeth?
