[Miata] '02 Bucking Without CEL - Update

[glpp2]

You can pick one up from FM salvage for a whole lot less than 325.  I, uh, have a little experience with that after misrouting the wire lead following a TB change on my 97.  8-}

        No, they didn't.  Guess I'll just do it myself once I get the car back today.  It'd possibly save me having to replace it (I mean, the CPS is just a magnet with a wire coming out of it, right?).

          So, going back to my first response, did anybody ever check the gap on the crank sensor?

                Update from the dealer: the car had a fault code for the Crank Position Sensor (not Cam).  I politely said "no" when they quoted me $325 to change it out.  They also found an arc mark on the plug wire going into the #3 cylinder and suggested changing the wires and plugs (or at least the #3 plug).  

                Does this sound reasonable?

                ps - The recall that the car was under that requires a PCM change/modification is 3505H:
