Most likely they will ! Would think the ring that works the crankshaft position sensor has got moved or the sensor itself has been disturbed . It has to be quite close to work it so have a check its down by the back of the oil filter .

Should be flashing the check engine light at you ?

None of them , its the gap 'tween the sensor and the ring thats important , must be tiny like the thickness of a thumbnail . now did the engine run for a bit or just fire up ?
Did you do any other things ? was the engine at TDC #1 when the flywheel was put on ? how did you check it ?

Some more details to be going on here !

Think it must be something else then as that seems fine to me. You did take off the ring for the sensor and swap it onto the new flywheel ? Umm . lets get this post moved so others can see it .

If its done with a Tech II and the isuzu 32 bit card it should - anything else dont ever seem to work .

The sensor is the electric bit with 3 wires behind the oil filter the bit you changed is just the ring it counts for engine rpm Sensor needs to be close to the ring to work have you checked that ?
