John,
   I checked the Escort sensor.......Both the camshaft and crankshaft sensors
of that engine are different than the Mazda Protege / RX7 / RX8 sensor......
  Tracy has indicated that we should stick with the Mazda sensors even
though some others such as the Suburu will work........Tracy said that the
Suburu sensors have a reliability problem but he had not heard of failures
with the Mazda part........This may be true of the Mazda part made by
"Denso" only........I cannot give any info about the reliability of sensors
supplied by Standard Motor Products,Delco,Airtex,Wells, ETC........
