Hmm, good idea! I picked one up while I was at the parts store today. The filter that's on there is probably antique.
Grandma is thrilled to be driving her own car again (so thrilled that she accidentally bumped a Mazda at the grocery store already ).
Thanks for all the help
Removed the spark plugs without too much drama. Again, seems like a mix of parts and ages. Two different types of motorcraft platinums, an Autolite, plus the Bosch Iridium that I just put in there while troubleshooting this. Gaps weren't horrendous, but they were all over the place. A couple...
Well, that wasn't as bad as the crankshaft sensor. Plugs up next. Looks like we had at least three different types of coils
(#5 is the one I had just changed)
We're pretty sure the plugs and coils have all been changed by my uncle or grandmother at one point or another. Doesn't seem like they were done at the same time though, and obviously not with all the same parts.
Man, I was really hoping that was gonna fix it. What a pita to get to lol. No dice though, symptoms are exactly the same. Old sensor was pretty grungy though.
Can't find any PIDs that are called crank or ignition or coil. I think there is not a PID for them, or it's just apart of some other related PID maybe?
Looks like it's blocked by the a/c compressor, so that'll be a littler harder to check. Probably need to get it back on jack stands to get a good look.
