That is not helping with my house purchase...  :-\

Can I just rub the old one or something? Hit it with a spanner? Buy it dinner? ;D

Just think of the price of a crank sensor as being something similar to what a garage would've charged you for diagnosing what you've just found out for free via the peddle trick  :y :y :y

True!  ;D

Where can I purchase on of these CPSs? Any trusted UK sites that might have it with me by Saturday?

10 minute job they said...
It'll be easy they said...

 :o

How do you /remove/ the sensor? Is it held in place by Thor himself?!  ???

Advice appreciated! It's raining and the job's half done...  :'(

Small torx bolt removed at the sensor itself, near the oil filter. It should just pop out, small flat head screwdriver might be needed to wiggle it out.

Pop the scuttle off, for easy access to route/plug it in  :)

Starts, runs, stops and restarts.
