Wish we could dispel the myth of CPS on '95 +.

My understanding is that the earlier, though not sure how much earlier, 9Ks MAY not show tach bounce if CPS is bad. My '95Aero did not show it, and I agonized over replacing it even though I suspected the pump. Others have indicated that the tach will not bounce on cranking because the CPS was redesigned in later 9K. Swedecar, aka Anders, feels this is a pretty reliable sensor. I think it may be misleading to suspect the CPS when the tach is not bouncing for these cars.
My give away was that it started once briefly after thumping on the bottom of the tank. I also swapped out fuel relays and DI with my '95CSE. After speaking with my indy, I decided to drop in a new fuel pump. Took some cranking, and held my breath until it finally fired up.
I think I went through this process in November. Check my past posts by clicking (more from Eric) above. It leads to a pretty active discussion of the issue.
The really cheap repair is if you replace the motor only. Think it was $70-80 from site sponsor. Tricky though...
