The flywheel is hitting it and yes the crank position sensor can be filed down with untra fine file just a wee bit to stop the clicking. Be sure to blow it off real good before installing. Well I am off to change my plugs, wish me luck.
Took about an hour and a half to change all 12 plugs.

16mm deep socket works better then 5/8ths
Short extension and swivel ratchet and a T30 (to take of coils) is about all you need. Watch those shields and work slow to keep from cutting your wrists.

Concerning the crank position sensor, I purchased both the Bosch and generic.

What happened after I put the generic one on is I got a P0300 (OBD misfire code) on cyl 3 (P0303) and cyl 5 (P0305) when I used the manual shift (auto tranny) to shift the car and it started running rough. I put the Bosch crank position sensor back on, re-tested with manual shift on auto tranny and problem of running rough and codes cleared.
