Thumbs up Re: Crankshaft Sensor??? or what

Well.... When I pulled the harmonic balancer yesterday, it was in pieces - literally in pieces - it broke apart near the keyway. I got a replacement and changed crankshaft sensor at same time. Viola - it started after that.

I have Bosch Platinums in the car now (spark plugs).

The car still missed after I got it running yesterday, until it ran for a few blocks, just like usual.

Check engine light came on after a few minutes of running also - Took it to Advance to check codes but the no longer have the OBD I any more, only OBD II. When I restarted it - engine light did not come on again.

I will be changing spark plugs this week, the other ones are terribly dirty and corroded. Will get what manufacturers recomend.

Not sure why this car continues to miss when engine is cold - does not happen after car heats up - Ignition module tested fine - Will try spark plugs next...

Thanks for the input.opcorn:
