Engine Stall, Multiple Codes What to attack first..

[redsvx94]

Hello,

In this morning, I found my 94 SVX LSi (~140K miles) engine cranks but does not catch the fire. In recent days, engine occasionally died on idle before it warmed up, but never after warm-up. I have not used the car for 4-5 days and now it doesn't start. The check engine light codes are

11 crank angle sensor
16 Fuel Injector no 3
19 Fuel Injector no 6
32 Oxygen Sensor or Circuit No.1 right side

I have noticed that 11 has appeared intermittently before but at that time I didn't have other issue. Kind of suspcious whether all three parts break down at the same time.
What would be most efficient course of action for me?
Thanks!
-John

I would aim for the crank sensor first. Pull it out clean any metal dust off the face of it. Check the winding for an open or short.
If all else fails, fit a new one.

+1
Crank sensor if faulty or full of metal dust/particles will not allow the car to start.

Crank sensor, No. 1 is the one circled in Red. It is the SVX only one, not the same as the cam sensor, and the one circled in Blue.

Thanks for the suggestion and picture! Crank sensor would have been my last pick!
It appears to be under alternator, but do I need to remove crank pully to get access to it? Hope not....

No, check the how to section in the top left. Find the one titled alternator removal. Its pretty easy and straight forward.
