The harmonic balancer could have slipped around the hub, also crank and or cam sensor can be be bad. Google the other codes, plenty of info out there.

As Max alluded, the two are related. The crank position sensors (multiple) are behind the balancer on a '92, or at least are from my recollection.

Re: 02 Buick Lesabre Custom occasional hard start, backfires occasionally, manifold exploded
Well sorry for the late response
did a compression test 1 rear cylinder is dead, 1 very week other 4 are strong now do I junk it get a junk yard engine or get 1 from autozone or advanced discount auto which I really don't care for figure just had the tranny redone Thanks for the advice did put a new camshaft sensor in was going to put the crank shaft sensor in side note has any one bought a engine from autozone and if so is it worth it and how complete are they don't think its safe enough to drive with 4 cylinders? |

Re: 02 Buick Lesabre Custom occasional hard start, backfires occasionally, manifold exploded
Is the low compression due to bore/ring wear, valves, or something else? It is possible the block and rotating assembly are serviceable and a valve is bent, stuck, or not opening.
