Confused

[1stSHO]

Well the SHO has been running good lately, then all of a sudden it just dies while im driving. No warning, just BAM!!
It wouldnt start, then after like 5 mins it fires back up. Well this morning i take my daughter to school and its running fine. I pull away from a light and stand on it. i hit 2nd and when it start whinding out it fell on its face again and the tack was all over the place. I let off and it ran fine.

Im not sure what it can be know.

sounds like either the crank or camshaft position sensor, but that's just a guess, i hope i helped

I would put my money on the camshaft sensor. Do you have any codes?

I havent checked for codes, i replaced it a couple of months ago, with an OReily part, but ill go get a Motorcraft cam sensor.

When I picked up my 94, I stopped by FPS and Doug read the codes and said it was the cam sensor. I replaced it when I got home and it was O.K. for a couple days and then it done exactly what you said, to my wife. She was not pleased. It took about 3 times waiting and starting to get it home. I read the codes myself with my little generic code reader and it said it was the crank sensor. I replaced it and all has been well since.
Have the codes read and let us know.

Check connections on the DIS and that the rear of the intake is securely grounded. If they are, then replace the crank sensor.

Classic Crank Sensor sounds like to me..

Is the crank sensor hard to change out?

 

[SHOoff89]

The CPS isn't hard to change, just takes a little time. This sounds like a CPS to me though. Check out shotimes or do a search to see what is involved with it. Good luck!
