I know they are different, Its I just did not know which had failed, I'll suspect the camshaft position sensor as it rotates 2x more than crank sensor.
I'm just not familiar with chevy TBI's.
My 89 dodge is TBI but only has the 'distributor pick up coil'
which is basically the camshaft position sensor with a different name. Mine has no crankshaft position sensor.
Rock auto lists no 'ignition/distributor pick up coil' for a 96 chevy 3500 with a 5.7v, so its either the crank or camshaft position sensor that was faulty.
I bring this up as it seems either or, could fail and cause the same or very similar issues, might want to carry a spare of the other which did not fail(yet)
That a magnetic field sensing sensor, failed in front of someone's home where a relationship soon developed, can lead one to believe in things that science and logic cannot explain.
