Are they all located in the gas tank? Also, can this be the reason why my car still shuts off on me or have hard hot starts? Meaning if I drove and the car is hot already, I cut the car off and get back in the car 15 mins. later the car won't start. Until after 7 times of cranking. At first I thought it was as simple as changing my fuel filter but its not that. I was wondering can one of my sensors be bad?

Better yet, is there anyone here in the Chicagoland area that I can bring this car to so I can show you this headache I have?

Have you gotten the crank position sensor changed? I had to have mine changed i would loose power and it would be hard to start it.

Is this something I can do on my own? No I havn't changed that at all. Does this make the cut cut of for no reason as well if its bad?
