    I changed the harmonic balancer, crank sensor, and new battery. Now I don't have any power. Don't have any codes.

    Power as in torque/hp? Or electrical?

    Ya gotta do a CASE relearn when you do a crank sensor, timing is probably out of whack.

    I'm sorry, by no power I meant that there is no horsepower. It idles fine just does not have any get up and go when you give it the gas.

    Shot in the dark but try unplugging the maf sensor and then start it up and see how it drives. If it drives better, then take out the maf and clean it with maf cleaner. No codes/ Check engine light right?
