starting woes.
« on: 22 April 2007, 20:26:46 »

With regards to the crank sensor fitted to the v6,would the crank sensor just fail,rather than give intermittent signs of failure.I ask this as my fathers  v6 this morning proved a touch stubbon to start,It did start after two or three attempts but this is most unusual.any thoughts most grateful. :o

I have seen both intermittent and sudden failures......remember that during cranking, the signal is weakest....
