While idling, the engine seems to run fine. However, when put in gear or during acceleration it misses horribly and has no power. I have changed the fuel pump and the fuel pressure regulator. I have changed the camshaft positioning sensor and the spark plugs. The spark plugs solved the problem,... for a day. I am getting engine codes of a defective crankshaft sensor, random misfires, misfire on #2,
fuel rail pressure sensor, and coil #6. While checking the wiring to the Crankshaft sensor I found that the wire going to the ignition transformer capacitor(this is what the part is called on a diagram I finally found online) has been burnt off and the wire is bare. Could this be my problem, I do not know what this ignition transformer capacitor does.
