Crank, no start, Tach moving needle width?

I was testing the concept that the crankshaft sensor had died, any thoughts on whether the tach would move at all in the event of the cam sensor failure?

The fun never ends.

In general, if the tach needle moves, the CPS is working.

No, should move more than that and pulse.
