HELPPPPPPPP Crankshaft Position Sensor...
Does anyone know exactly where in the Crankshaft Position Sensor is located? I looked around the engine and gave up.
I have the replacement C.P.A already, just need to install it. Thanks.

its on the motor/driver side, before the motor meets the transmission.
SEARCHY SeArChY!!!
tons of write-ups online!
my tips for this job:
* Use 1/4" drive sockets and extension with a universal joint.
* buy a set of sockets for the job (40 bucks at Sears-craftsman)
the small bolt is a PITA to install (its easy to remove tho), i dropped mine 2xs and it was close to mission impossible to find it.
i ended up using a 6" secion of rubber hose (fuel-line)
I poped the end of the bolt onto the hose, and it made positioning the bolt 100xs easier.
twist untill its somewhat tight, then pull off the hose and use your socket/extension/ratchet to torque to spec.
reconnect the connector and battery and you're set!
if the car starts, you just saved 300bucks in labor!
