It would help diagnose a dead CPS but not an intermittent one. They often go bad when it gets hot and work fine when the motor is cold.

Hey, was wondering what is causing the oil leak on the Miata you have in the video? I have a CPS issue and the old sensor was covered in oil after I cleaned it with some brake cleaner the car ran for a while but the issue reemerged and the car started for a few seconds and cuts out.

Crankshaft seal, it’s right near the sensor

Just curious what you did to get the noise, did you just slide your screwdriver into the gap to signal it? I couldn't tell what you were doing to make the noise.

In the video I used 2 methods. I turn the crankshaft with a wrench or use a feeler gauge between the sensor and the pulley.

Usually a sudden misfire around 4K rpm, kinda jerks the whole car, but just for a split second at a time

I don’t know what you are doing in first part. I don’t see anything. Just hear the sound. What are you doing. Said something about feeler gauge?

Sliding a feeler gauge between the crank sensor and timing wheel, just rotating the crank with ignition on will trigger it as well

@@immortanautomotive9221Thanks. I have all symptoms but never a check engine light and no codes. 2002 Miata SE. Still could be CPS right? In short 2 times start great cold, then won't start after shut down. First time resolved after 2 hours sitting. Currently won't start after 18 hours sitting. Spark is very infrequent. Been running regular gas for 3000 miles. Was surging power cold. Started slight stutter on highway after 30 minutes with no issue. Now 100% won't start. Picking up CPS and coil packs soon. Cleaned plugs and CPS.

CPS won’t always set a code, sounds like a cam or crank sensor problem, they get worse when hot
