[Just call me Sean]

Removed the crankshaft sensor and it has been contacting the gear. Installed it loose and it still ran backwards. Tightened it back down. Removed the cap and rotor to inspect them and make sure the distributor was still aligned. It is. Reinstalled and fired right up, running good. I did bend the rotor tab up to make better contact with the cap, but I don't think that is the problem. I think it just decided to run again.
