no, i had taylor 8mm's, those wires were crap! Ya, they ran me $95.56.

Ya, it is a pretty big job, you have to take the crank pulley off and other stuff.

Would someone be willing to help me out with the install of this sensor?

you just need a cps learn not a new cps, as far as I know... failing cps symptoms would be stalling with the tachometer dying.

Zalfrin, I did a CASE learn when he came down here. Doubt it helped.


Tim, I'm begining to wonder if maybe your tune is just screwed up. How are your LTFTs?

ok, so about 5 o clockish i decided to put the 3.6 back on. turned it on, had 2 misfires in the driveway, pulled it out of the driveway and it ran fine. did a couple hard pulls and nothing out of the ordinary(just a noticeable performance difference wink ). So, i let the car sit for a bit while i go inside and get ready for tonight, 40-50 minutes later, come back outside and start it up. 102 misfires, shut it off, looked to see if anything out of the ordinary happened, nope, nothing.

So, i started it back up, gave it some gas and they went away!! Pulled it out of the driveway, gave it some gas and they went away, ONCE i stopped for a stop sign, they came back! Fuel pump?!?!?!!

Im really confused now! I called john(lonezerg) he said hes never heard of anything like this, and he said he wants to pull the crank pulley off and take a look at that cps, and maybe the ICM is bad.
