From what I hear it's a sort of a pain to swap out..If I do/can check out those sensor points it would be when I drop the oil pan..not sure when that will be tho...But the CKPS/flywheel so makes sence being the problem..got all my fingers and toes x-ed ;D

Nevermind i did not see your previous post; what's the tolerance between the sensro and what ever it's reading.. if its got crap on it will it cause a thunking, thud or maybee cause what we are having issue with you think? What kind of holes on the fly wheel is it reading? Managements like on the CPS?

The sensor is a hall effect device combined with an internal magnet. On a 5.9 V8 motor the flywheel/drive plate has 8 single notches, spaced every 45 degrees at it's outer edge. The notches cause a pulse to be generated when they pass under the sensor. Those pulses are input into the PCM and for each engine revolution there are eight pulses generated for a V8 engine...(the two mounting bolts are hex heads)

Yeah.....It got the whole bottle at one feeding. I didn't know instructions for Seafoaming were on here anywhere, or maybe the can for that matter. I went by an oldtimer's advice from long ago. I let it idle until the smoke thinned and then drove the rest out of it. I've also heard transmission fluid done the same way, or poured through the carb, might free a stuck ring(for the 'been sitting awhile' motors). If there are "side effects" to a whole bottle at once then DO NOT follow my example. But as of yet, I see no problems.
Maybe its possible your torque converter has gone bad. Ive seen it happen 3 times in my life but anything is possible with these darn things.
