I have repaced the timing belt for maintance and now the car has no power. It will start right up. I have checked all the timing marks and adjustments twice and can not find anything wrong. What do you suggest.

Did you put engine no.1 piston on its compression stroke/TDC before you set the cam and crank markings

Its the crankshaft sensor. You may have it on upside down.
