Hi. Can anyone help out with some advice? Car was missing partic at low revs - ran ok at cruising speed. Then became hard to start. Took starter motor out and oiled shaft and cog that connects with ring gear. - no real difference. Replaced plugs and HT leads - now seems to run smoothly. Battery ok. Turns engine over fine but only starts about once in every 10-20 attempts. Engine appears to fire after a couple of seconds only and throws the starter motor out but does not catch and start. I've heard somewhere about the CPS - Crank Position Sensor - could it be a problem with this?
