[Shotimes] Help please, Weird Stalling Problem

Sounds a lot like the main CPS or crank sensor to me.
Random stalling, no start, etc.
Confirm by no tach signal during an attempted restart when it won't fire.
Should set a code for CPS, but only while it won't run. It erases itself
after it runs.
Only $50-60 but takes a while to change it.
