Anyone know where I can find a 240s "speed sensor"?

My sons 1992 244 was in the shop today and the mechanic felt the "speed sensor" needed to be replaced. I'm pretty sure he meant (what I've heard called) the crank speed sensor. But, I've never dealt with it before (in the six Volvos I've owned). I looked on swedishbricks.com and couldn't find it. I found it as a part on ipd but no info on where it would be.

Where is it? Is this thing hard to replace?

Thanks for any info.

Not sure what the problem is but there is such a thing on later 240s called the crank or flywheel angle sensor. I had mine replaced on my '93 by my mechanic when the car would sometimes start and sometimes not. Excluding the towing charge, the part and labor weren't bad.

I understand this sensor is at the back of the engine near the top of the bell housing but I've never done the work myself.
