    1990 Ford Ranger 2.3 Crankshaft Sensor

    UPDATE: removed intake side coil pack completely (one that was loose) and ran the truck. Runs fine now. Doesn't read RPM but I assume that's because coil pack is missing. Like you said, runs normal, just not a much power. So either shot coil pack, or ICM is sending weird signals to that side...

    1990 Ford Ranger 2.3 Crankshaft Sensor

Signs point to the Crank sensor. It'll start, run like crap, and then stumble and stall. I have a question about...
