    97 intrepid cutting out

    I recently have been experiencing a "miss" in the engine. I changed the
    ignition coil, checked plugs, and everthing looks fine. It only does it
    when accelerating. My wife now tells me it is dying while in route. Any
    sugestions as to what this is and how to fix it??

    it was the 3.3L I can't remember which sensor. it was either the crank or
    cam sensor. It was under warranty at the time.

    It is the 3.5l. Does anyone know how hard it is to replace the sensors? It
    doesn't get hot and it still idols fine it just won't drive.

    Dude,

    Turn the ignition switch with key to ON - OFF - ON - OFF - ON with out
    starting the engine. After doing so watch the check engine light, it will
    start flashing. Count the flashes, if you get a blink, blink then a longer
    pause then another blink that will be code 21. Code 55 is the last code to
    say all is good. I had close to the same problem and changed the cam shaft
    sensor first (easiest to get to) and it gave me the same problem so I then
    changed the crankshaft sensor and haven't had the problem again. Good
    Luck!!!

    More then likely the cam or crank sensor, relatively easy to replace both of
    them and as a preventive maintenance thing i would replace them. That will
    probably take care of the problem
