Is it possible the jump set off the crash sensor and killed the power and needs to be reset, or is all of that bypassed

All removed.
Fuel system is wired direct to new circut breaker and battery disconnect.
Engine runs but seems like 2 cylinders.
Plan is to start with sensors and if that doesn't work
Then have smike flush and test injectors. Could be foam related.
Acts like timing is way off or as smike suggested. .. 1 or 2 injectors could be stuck open

Regardless what caused the issue.
I plan to remove all existing factory wiring and start from scratch now that we have more time.

That sucks. If you want help with wires let me know.

How did my truck do?

Biggest air by far. And finished 3rd overall.
Driven by mike. Bought it from Matt I think?
Mike was awesome we camped next to them. They took your truck out on the dirt drag strip sunday night.  Beat a Neon. Lol

Apparently in West Virginia it's completely normal to cross rivers in Motorhomes.
Banged up the bottom of the trailer pretty good on the way in so we decided to have alex tow it out for us when we left.
Oh...
And we had water inside the trailer.

Ken block shot?

Agreed.
Angles were much steeper than photo makes them appear.
Mike that ran Ryans old truck had a brand spanking new 15 K ATC 24' trailer. We would have been pitting out by the road.

Sounds like pitting at the road is the only way to go down there. Exceptionally shitty.

Not many options for smike.

In wv crossing a creek between the kitchen and bathroom is normal.

Matt was saying DEC forced removal of a bridge? Plans to put it back?

Check out our latest video from the new Bro Lite Racing series, Round 1. Agusta, WV. Had a great turnout with 12 trucks. We debuted our Aussie Locker Ford Ranger sporting a Locked 8.8 rear axle and ADS shocks. For more info on this exciting new grassroots series, check out BroLightRacing.com

How is it that our Brolite engine situation managed to go from bad to worse to Let's Burn It?

Cam sensor swapped
No fix
Pressure washed it.
Forgot to take duct tape off intake. Tried to start... lack of air caused engine to kickback and blow apart a new starter.
Replaced starter.
Figured I'd replace Crank sensor while I was at it.
Steel Bolt sized in Aluminum mount.
End result...
Broken front engine cover.
