crankshaft sensor location

Hello,

The crankshaft sensor is located on the right side of engine. Here is a guide to help walk you through the steps and a diagram below to show you the location.

Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know what happens.

Where is the crank position sensor on a 1990 Pontiac sunbird with a 2.0 motor and it has a distributor. I was told it was under the timing belt cover. Please help

I checked my parts book and it does not show a crank sensor for the car.

hmm mine shows one for the 1992 with the same motor so i was double checking

do you know what triggers the fuel injector to inject gas, that is my real problem

I have same problem, but to much gas

New throttle body fuel sensor no change to much gas
Injector seems to be ok but no pulse toit.....

Ok i was told to check the ignition module, how do i pull it out, and more importantly, how do i test it? ..............a few minutes latter, i just pulled it out, on the side with 3 prongs i get power to 2 of the 3 prongs, the one i dont get power to is labled B, is this my problem, and if itisnt i need to know how to test the module, with ohms? or?

I need to know what is a crank sensor and why my car wouldn't run without it?

A crank sensor is a component used in an internal combustion engine to monitor the position or rotational speed of the crankshaft. This information is used by engine management systems to control ignition system timing and other engine parameters. Crank sensors in engines usually consist of magnets and an inductive coil, or they may be based on magnetically triggered Hall effect semiconductor devices. Common mounting locations include the main crank pulley, the flywheel, and occasionally on the crankshaft itself. This sensor is the most important sensor in modern day engines. When it fails, there is a small chance the engine will start (engine will likely cut out after a few minutes of driving) but it mostly will not start

Thanks you answer explained a lot. I had never heard of the crank sensor before.
