Can't find the crankshaft sensor on this junk of a car. I have asked AutoZone, Oreily's, and Advance Auto Parts for some kind of diagram of where it is no image nowhere. I need both crank and cam. I been told front the back, sides. I have taken down stuff to find and no luck. Just got dirty. Please help.

Hello,

On this vehicle the crank sensor or the TDC sensor is located at the Lower Left Rear of Engine (see image below).

In order to replace the sensor, you will have to remove several components including the timing cover and the crank pulley.

I have attached diagrams for your reference.

Let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
