Hi all,

I have a 90 integra RS 1.8 - I just had the timing replaced - dammit.

Drove around town a little bit for a few days, no probs - felt and sounded better than in years. Then went on the freeway for about 10 minutes, and when I exited, the following happened:

engine light came on
lots of power lost
engine sputtered like old vw bug
when came to a stop after the exit, revs dropped like it was gonna die (but didn't)
After shopping, car had trouble starting, and then all the above continued
On the drive back, car could barely do 60, and there were little "hiccups" in the engine - drop in car/engine speed (kinda like rev limiter feeling, but not as prominent). Revs were normal (3k mebbe).

After lettin car sit for a day or so, started it up to take it back to the shop, back to that good ol feeling it initially had. So I figure it happens when engine is warm.

Car shop hooked car up to their puter, and it spit out code #P04 - which they said was crank sensor failure, and the whole distributor had to be replaced.

They wanted $400 for the part and $99 for the labor.

How does all this sound to you folks?

Thanks for any input...
