Intermittent starting/stalling issue?

[mclarida]

This happened for the first time yesterday after I came out from eating. I came out to my 93 atx and she did not want to start. This was after a good 30
minute cooldown. I tried to start it for brief stints...nothing-then it started fine and ran great...until lunch today. After a brief lunch(cooldown for about 15 minutes) I came out and no start again. This time it would turn over and then the starter sounded like it could push no more and it stopped. Then I waited a second and turned it over again and it started. Idles just as it should. I put it in gear and come to a stop sign-started to pull out and stall(big truck coming!!!!) then I cranked it and vroom..reverse. Got it on the road and no tach reading at all!-all other electrical is fine-air working. Get it back to work and the tach works again and it starts fine. I changed out the dis module with a spare I had in the glove box. Any ideas? -

cam sensor, or coil

Crankshaft Position Sensor failing. I would check the water pump to make sure its not leaking all over the CPS.

New coil and the water pump is not leaking-could it be the dis?-I know all the rest of the other stuff is really hard to change(pump and sensors).

Do you turn the key and nothing or does the engine crank?

Engine cranks like a bandit. It just has that wierd issue-It did not do it on the way home today after work(I changed the dis module) but I am going to get the crank sensor anyway-just in case-

You changed out the Crank Position Sensor that fast?! It's located behind the timing belt just above the crank sprocket.
