    Switching Ref sensor with speed sensor?

    I have a bad CPS, (the one with the grey plug), and was wondering if I could switch the position/wires and get my car to start/run more reliably until the new one gets here. Also, if someone has a source for CPS's for less than 70 bucks, that would be awesome.

      But, if my speed sensor is bad, and causing my car not to start, would switching it with the reference sensor, make the eta happy enough to start and run for a few days while the part ships? I guess my question is, how critical to the motor running is the reference sensor?
