crank sensor is really easy once you know where it is! It's on top of the gearbox housing, and it's held on with a bracket that has a screw at either side. Undo these and wiggle it out without damaging it. To find it, look for the wire coming from it, it's right on top of the gearbox quite close to the engine block.
Once you've got it out you'll see it's just an exposed metal pin and should clean up easily enough. As far as starting in general goes, it's always worth making sure the battery is clean and wired up well, and that the earth cables are well attached to the body and engine and not frayed. I'm sure people on here could list a few other possible causes for poor starting, but these two are easy to do regardless Last edited by The T.I.B.; 2nd November 2006 at 05:31 PM. |
