Just behind the transmission below the throttle body

Thank you Glenn. Is it an easy removal/installation? Any special advice?
the 3.0 litre doesnot have a crank sensor.It uses a distributor.
After paying the dealer $100 for diagnosis of my stalling problem, they said the crank sensor is bad and told me $325 to replace it. I bought one for this car last night for $60 and am going to replace it. I HOPE there is one there.
That year 3.0 does use a crank sensor. It is where I told you it was and all you need is a 10mm socket to remove and replace it. There should be a piece of green paper on it. Leave that paper on it. When you install it make sure you press it firmly into place holding pressure on the sensor as you tighten the bolt. The paper is the shim that gives the proper air gap.
Good luck
Glenn
Thanks Glenn. I installed the sensor and the van starts right up and does not stall anymore. You are a great asset to this group. Steve
Hmm, dont know why my post didnt go thru yesterday. But that year does have a crank sensor and it is located where I said it was.
