Could the Crank sensor be a flake such that, at low speeds, the ECU can't run the engine right but can at high speeds? I do not know the answer to that question, so put in your spare BOSCH sensor and find out, since it takes ten minutes. But I bet $20 it it not the CPS.
As always very good information and advice! Thankks Pizzaguy!
What ever happened to all the cars where you just have someone crank the handle on the crankshaft and it starts with a little spark advance? LoL Maybe life wasn't so easy back then after all. Wifey kept breaking her arm! (Another LoL)
