Can the crank angle sensor from my ca18et be replaced on it's own, or do I have to get an whole distributor? Everything on my car seems to work. Got fuel, air, spark, compression, timing. TPS is good, AFM is good, o2 is good. Plugs (champion), leads, rotor, dizzycap are all new. The only thing that I haven't checked is the CAS. Can I get a new one? Where? Or do I need a complete dizzy?
Thanks

have you ran a self diagnostic on the ECU? it might help pin point the issues

Unless you're getting eratic ignition timing I'd leave the CAS alone.

I can't get the ecu to check itself. It keeps blinking both lights at the same time. The car is pulling strong, so the timing seems to be ok. Only at the cold start it will give some backfires and stalling. Water temp sensor is changed, but without result. Anyone going to the Retro Rides show and can help me with the self diagnosis by any chance?

Cool! I made a 300mile trip with the car last week, without any issues, so I guess that the trip to Gloucester should be fine also. Can't wait!
