Where have you looked Venom? I seem to recall that the last one I bought ( a couple years ago) was from NAPA. If they don't have it any longer then the stealership may be your only option.

They have several names. I think that NAPA may have called it a distributor stator. The AZ guys can't find their butt with both hands.

Also they don't always call it the Crank Position Sensor..Sometimes it is refered to the pickup coil....

The part you need from autozone is CR149 and here's a link to it..
