Quoted From jbone:
check and adjust and clean the crank position sensor, visible from under the car behind the radiator fan blades on the balancer, loosten the 2 bolts and adjust the sensor to just tough the matal balancer.
this lets the electronics know where TDC is for the ignition timing. if it does not catch this puls – you have to go arround again and again till it fires. The car will run better too!
Actually the best way to confirm a problem with the crank position sensor is by viewing it’s signal on a lab scope but I realize not everyone has access to one of those. Given that the CEL has not been set however I think it might be a bit early to start condemning sensors, in my experience with the absence of a CEL the problem is often something basic like a vacuum leak or tune up issue, the rule of KISS applies here in my opinion.
