    OK. We can stop talking about my mechanic. He is in the process of changing the CPS, timing belt and water pump. The problem is that the key on the crank shaft is broken and the gear is a little loose. I ordered them from RCM and am still waiting on the shipment. That's why I am asking if...

    SHO & CSVT junkyard!! What do you need? 20+SHOs

    I have a 95 atx (3.2 liter). I need a replacement gear and key (for the keyway) for the crank shaft. The existing key broke and allowed the gear to loosen up on the shaft. Can you help me? I could also use new (non hazy) headlights if the price is right. Thanks.

    So, my mechanic is working on replacing the coolant temp sensor. He told me to go ahead and replace the water pump and timing belt while he's at is. Now, I need everyone's help again. It turns out that the crank shaft needs a new gear and key for the keyway (the key was broken). I tried my...

    When the car doesn't start, the tach does jump up to the 3-500rpm range. I started the car a little while ago and it died when I tried the accelerator. I cranked it more and the tach was working. I pulled 2 spark plugs and they were gas fouled. Any more thoughts?

    I spoke with the mechanic I mentioned above and he said he checked the water pump and there's nothing wrong with it. He also looked at the crank position sensor and didn't "see" anything wrong with it but would check it out too. Let me give a little more history. I just bought the car last...

    So, does anyone have any other suggestions on what could be wrong or is the crank position pretty much unanimous based on the problem I am having?

    SuperHO - would the computer throw an error code for the crank position sensor if there is a problem?

    Thank you SuperHO. Being a Ford and SHO novice, that sounds fair enough and will check into it this weekend.

    I have a 95 atx SHO. It will start and run for about 20 minutes and then die or will die if I try to give it gas. When it dies, the car won't start again for about another day and at that time it will start just fine and die after 20 minutes or gas. I've replaced the plugs and engine coolant...
