OK so I went out and jiggled the wire to the CPS and the car fired right
up and ran fine. Maybe the sensor is going bad or the wiring/connector
are lose or something. I guess I'll order another one, only $25, and
replace it. Maybe put some dielectric grease in the connector too if
there was some water in there from the other evening.
On another accomplishment, I added a bit of oil to the SL and checked
the coolant, the light had been blinking on occasionally. It did not
look low but I guess I will add some tomorrow. I also fixed a hood
latch which had not been catching well and being a PIMA, turned out the
little catch that holds the main catch in closed position was all
goobered up and would not close to catch the catch. So some spray lube
and working it a bit got that back in order. Sprayed the other one too,
all looks to be in ordnung now.

Can't find the CPS on any of my 1966 to 1992 Diesels.

Yesterday I drove the car, started twice, no issues. I get home,
jump in about an hour later to go out, crankie but no startie. No
CEL. Jiggled wires around again, still no starties... Not sure what
the issue might be.
Where is the CPS? I see where this is a common issue, maybe I should
just swap it.
