need a picture or diagram
« on: 02 September 2010, 18:30 »
Would anybody be able to help me out and post a picture,  a diagram, or a page from a manual of where the crank position sensor is on an AGU engine.   I need to know where and what I'm looking for before I get under the car

Any help would be much appreciated

Thanks
Wilson

someone correct me if i'm wrong but isn't it under the cambelt cover? or is that a Cam position sensor?

if not then isn't there one on the bottom end of the cambelt? where the timing on the Cambelt is done...?

Crank Position sensor = impulse sensor = engine speed (rpm) sensor

Found a thread detailing position on a 2.0 - take a look down near the oil filter....

Also on ukmkivs shows it on a 1.8 20v down near there too....
