Cool Is it my cps?

Hey guys I want to make sure I'm buying the right part. I was sitting at a light the other day and she just died, I hit the key an she started right back up again. Then it did it a little later in the day same thing die at a light then I would be able to start right back up again. Yesterday was taking off from a light and she just died tach went to zero then picked back up again and took off did that three times so far. I only have 39,900 on the clock. It sounds as though my cps or as International calls it a CAMP Sensor, am I making a right assumption. Cost from International here in Houston $97.36 +tax. Braking down onthe side of the road would suck.......

Those are the classic symptoms, and is the right starting point even if it is something else.

Thanks cookie88 I am going to International right now!! One last stupid question should I wait untill it goes out completely before I replace it or do I replace it right away (will the old one last a while longer?)and put the old one in the glove box in case the new one fries sometime while I am dring down the road and use it for emergency purpose?

If you wait until it completely fails, you'll be changing it on the side of the road somewhere. I would put the new one in right now, and get another new one to keep as the spare, because it's going to fail again eventually.
