The crank sensor issue was seen in more than just Commodores & Falcons. I've probably replaced more Ford 6 distributors than I have GM crank sensors, but I replaced plenty of Honda & Mitsubishi crank sensors too & when you compare the numbers of cars on the road, these were probably worse per capita. Hasn't just about every Honda in Australia had 2 or more distributors fitted by now ?
