Sensors , oh sensors!

So id like to change out my shredded crank positon sensor

http://www.autohausaz.com/search/product.aspx?sid=x02exonggfw01majcfbsme45&partnumber=12141720852

But i thought there was only 1 of them? why does AZ say i need 2?


also the water temp sensor

these would be the two major ones that would need to be changed that would directly effect idle and running conditions correct?



ninja edit:

were does the crank position sensor connect? the is one of the w2 plugs below the diagnostic port?

[Naplm00]

ne one?

[Naplm00]

bumpity?

[SpecM]

what kind of e30, how about we start there?

[Naplm00]

d'oh


88 325ic

[SpecM]

the '88 has one sensor, it mounted on the pass. side of the front timing wheel (under the distributor)

[Naplm00]

thats what i figured...mine is there but the wiring is shot...it has a crimp cap holding ti togeather

Where does this thing plug into? seems like it goes all the way up the harnees under the intake mani

[SpecM]

it does, it plugs in on the bracket on the maniold, right beside the cyl ID plug (beside the dipstick)

[Naplm00]

niice...now i can hopefully get this annoying stumble out of my engine

[SamE30e]

They both could effect idle.

the water temp sensor, im goin to replace as well

Ill just pick that up at napa or something

the crank sensor I'm goin to try my local dealer and see if he can hook me up

[Tree18is]

your best bet for that sensor would be the junk yard for the cheapest route, then Blunt, and other parts suppliers.

the dealer I think will most likly pull your asshole inside out.

The locals are pretty good to me, and ive been also dealing with BMA..i should try blunt, i order a retarded amount of parts anyway
