when you had it on a scanner could you see the variable camshaft timing position, the vct has 4 modes idle, part throttle, wide open throttle and default. Pcm determines the angle based on air flow and oil and coolant temp. Soooo if the angle is wrong when she warms up may cause your problem.

but wouldn't that throw a code?????

i only think pedal based on what might happen in a major accident. Maybe the person jammed the pedal or some shit.. Anyways. It's worth a try with perhaps a pedalmax.

in the last picture you can see where the ear broke off during the accident and had to be reattached via JB WELD.
It holds fine, but it is also where the crank position sensor mounts. The repair moved the mounting position ever so slightly, and was keeping the crank
position sensor from reading the tone ring at low RPM's.

I ended up grinding about 1/16th inch of the ear off with a grinder , to push the sensor fully into its seat.
once I was comfortable it was seated correctly I replaced the intake, fuel rail, throttle body, ect...and she ran perfectly!!!!

Thanks to all who helped with ideas and feedback!!!

Now on to the power steering......
