engine problems

[quote:4951ea3a56="dougie49"]i need to know where the location of the crank position sensor in a 1991 oldsmobile 98 with a 3800 engine with 182,000 miles? Also the engine almost starts but it acts like it is out of time so how would you time a 3800 engine? I have replaced the coil and modual. thank you[/quote:4951ea3a56]


i would try changing the crank sensor first before messing with the timing. i changed mine on my cutlass supreme it was located on the side of the motor that is closest to the firewall i dont know which side to call it but it was kinda farther down the motor. just picture if you followed the crank across the motor. i had trouble reaching it. i had to take the coil packs and ignition module out to fit my arm down there. if it wont come out try and spray some WD-40 around it to slide it out
