2.4 Crankshaft Position Sensor

I think what I’m gonna do is disconnect that sensor on Monday (under the oil filter) and find out what it is. I’m almost positive that’s your issue. Id do it today because I’m off in a couple hours but it’s wet from the storms last night.

That would be very much appreciated
 
By the way, since you’ve done the work to take the cover off, do a timing job (and water pump).

Planning to, might as well order that kit off rockauto while I'm waiting on mail delivery and testing time of the PCM.
Don't want to have to do the whole cover again
