    Not me lol. Maybe I'll try next time! A friend of a friend that has a garage near me. Awesome guy- although he originally told me he was over booked he came out to my house to look at it and squeezed it in because it was a quick fix. He's either a really great guy or it pays to be a woman or maybe it's both!

    It might be the crankshaft sensor.

    I'm thinking it might be the sensor for the crankshaft.

    It could be a sensor in, or around the vicinity of, the crankshaft.
