I just picked up a 1991 900S for conversion into a dedicated track car, and while I have zero intention of using the 2.1l motor in the race car, I'd like to get the thing running so I can get an idea of what condition the engine/tranny is in, and maybe see what else is broken (besides the windows, the sunroof, the stereo, the headlights... ROFL).
The car will almost always start, but after a minute or two of running just dies. It's not a sputtering death, it just stops running. I suspect the crank position sensor, so what is the best way to monitor its output with the engine running? Any sure-fire ways to diagnose an intermittently failing CPS?
