Crank Position Sensor
Ok I am getting CEL code 3 (Crank Position Sensor- G Signal) at times and my car is runnng sluggish and seems to be less fuel efficient. Starts no problem so I am thinking it needs a New CPS. Is the Crank Position Sensor the same on all 4cyl cars (SOHC & DOHC)? I can get a sensor for a 95 but I have a 93. Thanks

Just emailed mazda near me and here's what the guy says...
That sensor is located within the Distributor on the 1.6L.
Part# B3F518200R00 MSRP-288.30 Website-230.64 Core-50.00
I would have to order it.
The only MX-3 that used an external crank sensor is the 1.8L V-6. All the 1.6L's have the re CPS located inside the distributor and you have to get the entire dist to get it.
... if this is true I NEED to get a new disty![Rolling Eyes :roll:](./images/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif)

yes - B6 engines do not have a crank position sensor - they only have the cam position sensor in the disty - 95-98 1.8L BP engines have the extra crank position sensor.
