Re: Time to play "Which sensor's broken?"!!!

Sad to resurrect this thread, but the stalling has NOT been cured But, a friend at a local shop hooked the SVX up to an OBD1 reader and it gave a crank angle sensor code.

So, could that be the issue? To re-summarize what has happened so far

1. Start and idle cold no problem, but slowly drop RPMs as car warms up eventually stalling once temp is reached
2. Start and idle horribly rough with a random assortment of fuel injectors or spark plugs not working. For example, one time none of the right side bank fuel injectors were working. Turned it off, turned it back on, and all was well. Today none of the spark plugs were working. Turned it off, waited a bit, and turned it back on...all was well.
3. Start and idle cold no problem, begin to stall, but save itself when I unplug the Coolant Temp sensor
4. Start and idle cold no problem, begin to stall, proceed to stall even when I unplug the coolant temp sensor.

As you can see...a random assortment of stall or rough idle scenarios.

Looking for more input...
