On some mornings, the engine cranks like normal but does not start. If I use starter fluid in the throttle body it will eventually start and re-start throughout the day. I had the crank sensor replaced six months ago after having the same problem. Could that sensor go bad again? The problem comes and goes, always originating in the morning. I would appreciate any suggestions.

	Crank position sensor A crank sensor is a component used in an internal combustion engine to monitor the position or rotational speed of the crankshaft. This information is used by engine management systems to control ignition system timing and other engine parameters. Before electronic crank sensors were available, the distributor would have to be manually adjusted to a timing mark on the engine.
