If your car uses VVT(Variable Valve Timing) or adjusts its ignition timing it could cause poor fuel economy, misfires, keep the car from starting. If the car is fuel injected the timing of the injectors is tied in with that too. In short nothing could, if the car manages to keep running it could lead to a blown motor depending on how you drive.
It will not stay running with out a crank sensor.
I think your car can just cut off the engine at any point given
At a minimum the speedometer and odometer will cease to function. But most newer cars rely on the speed sensor for a lot of other systems and will activate a 'limp home mode' if the speed sensor fails and could affect things like the ABS system and the transmission.

A Vehicle Speed Sensor(VSS) can fail gradually or suddenly. At a minimum the speedometer and odometer will cease to function.

I do not know the complete answer. Usually, as the oxygen sensor is failing, it will cause the car to run rich, so that your exhaust gets blacker. If it totally fails, then the computer will go into a default mode (limp mode), and without having feedback from the sensor, it will make the car run at a fixed rich setting, again making the exhaust blacker. I am also hunting for an answer since my car is stalling and the check engine indicates a faulty downstream oxygen sensor. Since it is $85, I would love not to have to replace it. yes an 02 sensor will make a car stall replaced both on my 2000 zx3 now fixed much better gas millage to
If the SA node fails to fire the atrioventricular node should take over.
as the crank spins around there is a magnet on it, and the sensor pics up a signal off of it to detect that the crank is in motion. If the sensor fails it will not send a signal to the computor, and that will cause the ignition system to shut down, so you will not have spark.
Just like a old TV Wear and tear, gets old then fails. The sensor stops building voltage potential
engine will proberly only idle
I don't think so since its purpose is to balance and cancel vibration. It is mounted on the opposite end of the engine. Usually the crankshaft sensor fails because of oil contaminating on the sensor. Difference in temperature with the oil causes the sensor to malfunction intermittently.
If a transmission speed sensor fails, the transmission will default to second gear.
When the Carbon monoxide (CO) detector fails in a gas dryer, the alarm sensor malfunctions.
The ignition timing will be off causing misfiring among other problems.
Normally if the crank sensor fails while running,the engine can keep running with just a working camshaft sensor.
Same as all other cars, it senses crankshaft angle so that the engine control module can apply spark to the fuel at a precise time to achieve full combustion with minimal emissions. there's usually also a camshaft sensor, and many vehicles will use the camshaft sensor if the crankshaft sensor fails to provide limited functionality (limp home mode). If its dead, you'll have to replace it for the engine to operate properly. I don't know if your vehicle has any mileage limits on limp-home mode.
The sensor is kind of like a coil and when heated up expands. when expanded the sensor is not on the correct timing mark therefor will not start. when cooled down coil will shrink down and be on the correct timing spot and start right up. i had the exact problem with mine, your gunna need a new crank shaft positioning senor... not very expensive or hard to do yourself, just watch out if you do it yourself you could mess up the timing which will cause more problems that will not be cheap!!!
replace it
The CKP looks like a small gear with long teeth located inside the distributor housing. If the CKP fails, unfortunately you must replace the entire distributor housing.
