.....of course that's after pulling codes to see if there are any stored.

Hi again Y'all,

A couple of weeks ago I was forced into the infamous BFPHFH (large 
pot hole from heck) and the car suffered a BIG jar at the RF 
corner.  A second or so later the engine faltered and then 
immediately caught again.  The falter was a complete engine shut-off 
not just a missing cylinder.  The falter happened again another 5-6 
timr before I made the last two miles home.  The car, at that time, 
felt like it did back months earlier when I had a failed CPS (crank 
position sensor) so I replaced the CPS and the car ran fine again - 
for a while.

So - today - I took the S6 out to pick up some stuff for the better 
half.  Engine faltered three times on me.  Just like before I 
replaced the CPS.  I'm thinking it wasn't the CPS.  Now what sez 
I?  I didn't notice whether the tach responded to the falter or 
not.  I wasn't really looking for it and I didn't notice any tach 
activity with peripheral vision.

Suggestions?

Bob
