Thanks for turning off the CAPS. Not to be a smart alec, but it's just hard to read the posts and you'll be less likely to get a reply.
The crank sensor could cause these problems. But so could other things--fuel delivery, as you mentioned. See my reply to the thread just below about that stuff... http://www.saabnet.com/tsn/bb/NG900/index.html?bID=104319
The crankshaft position sensor is part number 4504288, list $79. It is easily accessible: just behind (toward passenger compartment) the coil pack. There is a wire going to it. Another way to describe the location is just under the upper right corner of the main plastic engine cover marked 2.5 V6 near the bolt. To access it, you'll have to remove that and the small cover on the side.
I don't know of a way to test the sensor and I don't feel confident telling you that it is a good idea to replace it for $79 or not. It could be, it could not be. Maybe some other discussion of this in the archives could help? I thought the crank position sensor would generate a check engine light but maybe not, especially since you and I both have OBD-I cars.
Good luck. If you resolve this problem please post back on the board.
