2000 Ford Explorer 5.0L V8, 130k miles. The crank-no-start problem seems to be related to parking on a hill. Very intermittent. Right now, cranking/starting fine. I'm just now beginning to troubleshoot it and have been reading on the first dozen or so things to check (fuel pump, fuel filter, fuses, relays, crank sensor, etc.).
There are no codes showing (assuming I know how to use the code reader device).
First question: Is this the crank sensor - please see link at:

That darn thing is hard to get to if that's it. I sprayed some degreaser on it followed by electrical cleaner. Seems to have cleaned some of the gunk off.
