As im at idle the car will just shut off and it will give me the little red oil light will flick on my dash


i took it ot my shop he told me it could either be the crank position sensor or ECU


we were 90% it was the CPS since i was putting oil in my car i took a look at the sensor and saw oil leaking from it?(so could this be the problem)
 
no CEL thats the weird thing

i went to autozone to hook it up to the computer see if i pull any codes but i couldnt find the plug where to hook it up LOL (im illetrate with dsms im a former mazda mx6 owner theyre super easy to find stuff around the engine bay)
 
the camshaft position sensor is fine the ECU doesnt smell fishy or burnt or anythign whar could it be guys?


:thumbdown :dsm:
 
Hey guyz we need to get this figured out cause I think my problem is about the same as his so any help would be plenty useful.
