The 91 coil would work, but you would need to figure out the right spark plug order as they probably won't be the same.

Cars in the shop gettign a new crank sensor, timing belt, water pump, and all the fun labor charges and tow charges that come with it

Thats also hoping that its not crankwalk in which he says new bearing and not a swap...:) yay for my first fuckin dsm problem

It was the crank sensor? I would just swap a 6 bolt in now then becuase I would assume it is probably walked. New bearings wouldn't fix the problem. It could run longer though. I though it was at like .015 that it was supposed to start eating the crank sensor but that number might not be correct because I don't remember.

My Talon does the same thing, expect for the car not running, and the MAP sensor is a pile of junk. I just haven't gotten around to ordering a new one yet. Did you ever just get one of those hand held code readers and plug it in and find out whats wrong?

wait wait, mine is still messed up and has the same symptoms as yours. It had a code about a bunk MAP sensor, so I got a new one installed and nothing changed. What was wrong with yours
