Hello,
reading thru your list,
You are well on your way,
Everything needs to be done anyway, soon or later!
I do not see a fuel filter replacement,
Clogged catalytic converter?
With a fresh/ fully charged battery (13.8V+) does it still crank a while before firing.

Replace the coolant sensor and check the wiring, special attention to where the wire meets the plugins!
Good luck!

Hello
I haven't had a chance to get underneath the car to check on the connector (to eliminate it as a possibility) that plugs into the side of the transmission; weather & circumstances prohibit it for now.

do this soon!
Good luck,

Hello,
Auto tranny,
Not mentioned yet,
Neutral saftey switch inside shifter needs to know it is in park or neutral, or it will not crank, (might be kaputt)
If the later you can over ride it by jumping the two brown wires in the connector plug

Cat converter replacing with two pipes is a excellent idea, done that on my six,
Sensor will be fine in one of the pipes,
Good luck
