Any other testing of sorts that anyone would recommend?

Also yesterday, I took off my Crank Angle sensors and saw that they were pretty covered in oily dirt. I cleaned them off with a dry paper towel and it sounded like my car would idle and rev a lot smoother (when it runs right), but it still after a few minutes it started to do it's failure thing. I did notice that on one of the sensors, the metal covering to it (cylinder shaped piece that goes in to the block) was able to move from side to side, as in spin a little bit. The other side was stationary. Is that okay, or a bad sensor?
You say no CELs and that you have check codes, but have you actually followed the procedures in these instructions??

Believe me if you have followed these instructios and you have any of the problems that you indicate---YOU WILL HAVE SOME CODES!!! (This assumes that you have a 92-95 SVX)

If you have not actually done this--do it.
