Crank angle sensor?

My VT has an intermitant miss at idle. Ive replaced the coil packs, the spark plugs & leads & even the ignitor unit under the coils. Its not showing any faults. Could it be a dicky crank angle sensor?

Run a bottle of injector cleaner through it. It may be that the injectors are carboned up a bit.

thats the worst thing for cars it just unsetles crap in the tank and f**ks the injectors more not to mention that it eats in to rubber hoses

well considering that it is designed for fuel systems and allot of fuel company's have it in there fuels that they sell, i find it hard to believe it will **** up stuff! if anything it will "improve" the fuel system.

Ive had it mentioned that it could be a valve problem & to do a compression test as the LPG isn't the best on valves
