And you are describing the crankshaft position sensor, or CPS, that's mounted on/in the flywheel housing, correct?
The CPS on my car is all one piece, that is, it's a molded assembly from the sensor all the way to the plug at the EZL. It's not a separate sensor that is mounted on the flywheel housing with a connector that plugs into the top of it.
I may pull it anyway to see if there is any crud on the end of it. Since it's a Hall Effect pickup if there are any bits of metal, say from shavings from the starter pinion and bring gear, on the end it will effectively short out the magnetic circuit.
Thanks!
