I've just had the power amplifier on my 93 diagnosed as faulty. Apparently they are known to be sensitive, and can partly fail when cold, damp etc. All I did was remove it, separate from its heat sink, clean off all the corrosion and refit. It works perfectly now. I was advised always to carry a working spare.
Crank sensors too break down with age. Measure the resistance between the centre pin and one of the others - only one will give a reading. I can't remember what the limits are, but my 167 Ohms is apparently fine.
