I had a problem to start the engine after all and trying to figure it out what's the problem. The main reason was broken crankshaft position sensor. Actually, I didn't measure position hole correctly, so the flywheel was grinding sensor and this is the result



I found replacement sensor and put one washer between sensor and tranny, so now there is enough space between flywheel and sensor



In the meantine I bought new spark plugs.



Because the car is working like on 6 cylinders, I will convert ignition coils for a brand new Beru ZSE033 coils. It is much cheaper solution than buying new S8 coils, boots and ignition modules.

I think you could improve the air intake? Looks like the air filter is in a hot place there.
