From one of Winfreds post regarding the CPS:

"theres 3 tests for a cps, pulse, ohm's and current, they can pass 2 out of 3 and be bad, i can't remember exactly what that one reads as resistance 540 or 900 something, pulse is not that important and takes a scope to read, current, should make at least 1 volt AC at cranking speed, generally if the main relay is working the idle control valve will buzz slightly to the touch with the key on"
I doubt that it is the crank since the one I pulled out ohmed OK and the Hella I just put in ohmed OK and didn't solve it.
The cam sensor on the other hand does not look good. Did not ohm at all. So, I'll let you know what happens after replacing that.

With the dash ... when running the dash test, should the tach and speedo needles go the full travel and peg at maximum? I can't remember, the last time I did it was years ago. The other night they only go to 12 o'clock ... I hope my cluster isn't also screwed.

Thanks for the input,
Ken
