Any Mechanics want to lend a hand?

NTD:
Thanks ::)

Badger:
  It should slip on just about all the way before tightening, possibly lightly tapping with a small hammer, if it doesn't it is probably off. I missed a key way on a trans counter shaft when pressing on a gear and it cost me a thousand bucks. Very easy to do. Steve

NTD:
It did slip on relatively easy.  The first time we attempted to put it on it was a bit rough so we marked the line up and tried again.  It when it smootly.  I thinking that we may just not have tightened it quite enough.  A buddy of mine asked if we had run it and then checked tighteness, we didn't.  He thinks we might have had it 95% tight and then when it ran it loosened it up.  He reccomended when I do it again to run it a few minutes and then snug it up again.  I'm just hoping I didn't mess up the crankshaft.

NTD:
....Drum roll please.......It was the crankshaft senosr!!!!  My car is now up and running guys.  Thanks for all the help.
