    Try removing the Crankshaft Position Sensor, cleaning it with WD-40, and reinstalling it. I would definitely focus on this sensor.

    Yes, I'd focus on the crank sensor, too.
    Be advised: you may need to have the sensor "learned" by the ECM once removed and reinstalled.
    You may also need a software update to be certain you have the latest calibrations for optimum operation.
