Darkman, no offense, but you've been wasting money/time replacing parts without checking things systematically first.
I see this over and over again here on the list, friends working on cars, and have been guilty of it in the past. I once wasted a month because I didn't check a solenoid resistor that I ended up getting from my buddy for virtually free, after removing the intake manifold at least 3 times.
Everyone! Download your FSM (links available), study it, and check sensors, resistances, etc., following troubleshooting methods. Almost everything has a method for testing.
Darkman, to stop ranting and give some advice, see if your crank angle sensor shows the proper resistance. Pull it out after setting the engine to top dead center, and check it also while spinning it. When putting back, align the dot punched in the gear with the notch on the CAS housing and place the crank angle sensor into the front cover. It's in the FSM. Good luck.
