If you still need help with crank sensor, I have your exact car myself and had to replace. I purchased a 1994 sunbird 2.0l crank sensor, and extended each of the 3 wires with 3' of wire so cable could reach. I routed wires around the edges of engine compartment to keep away from harness and electrical interference. thing to know about crank sensors, they generally come in two shapes, mostly. 1.5-2 inches long and about 3/8 inch diameter or its about 1 inch long and about 3/4 inch diameter. They are either 2 or 3 wire. So if you cant find your particular crank sensor, one of same shape size and # of wires from your same manufacturer different model will work. They all work the same. At least thats what I did. Works great!
