need a picture of crank sensor quick!!
 

help i need a picture of how the 99 miata crank sensor mounts. i just pulled it off and for the life of me cant get it back on right

Best I can find on short notice: http://forum.miata.net/vb/showthread.php?p=4679794

THANK YOU. i got it tho. so i replaced my crank sensor and now i get spark on all of them but my coil on 1&4 keeps getting hot. i can switch coils and it still does it. the coil pack on 2&3 stays ice cold.
STILL will not start. it all most wants too

PLEASE TELL ME WHY IT WOULD GET HOT ON 1&4?? ground? i was driving and it just stalled so it was not from me changing anything??

and as much as i mess with the crank gap it still fires good on 2&3 but it seems like it fires 1 time for every 2 rotations on 1&4 AND IT GETS HOT

Seriously?

This is how the past week has been, from my point of view:

Nick: im not getting any spark on 1&4. ive swapped coils three times and it's always bad on 1&4

Everyone else: Probably your shit's fucked up with the wiring or the ECU.

Nick: i think ill replace some random sensors cuz thatll fix it

Everyone else: No, there's some shit going down with the ECU or the wiring in the neighborhood of the ignition triggers, and you need to diagnose that.

Nick: i replaced the muffler and also the passenger's side mirror and my 1&4 plugs still aren't firing. i also installed a turbo but that didn't fix it either. i got a set of replacement floor mats on order tho, hopefully that will fix the problem??

Everyone else: Dude, are you even here right now? (raps on Nick's forehead like Biff from Back to the Future pt. 1) Find somebody who knows something about how a car works and ask them to look at your coil triggers.

Nick: WHY WON'T ANYBODY TELL ME EXACTLY HOW TO FIX THIS?
