Chrankshaft Position sensor removal

[kalabocca]

What is the easies way to change the cps on an 89 cherokee limited 4L straigh 6??

[the best way is to get a swivel socket and dont drop the bolt in the bell housing as i did. its only 2 bolts its just hard to get to. good luck

And a few LONG extensions.

Tie a long string to the connector before you remove it. When you get the new one installed, use the string to pull the wire harness back up.

the swivel socket and a couple of 8 inch extentions. then come from underneath left wheel (from behind left front wheel). more easier for people with small arms. also my suggestion is to stick a crumble newspaper page right undernneath sensor to block the bolt from falling in the hole. I was lucky the magnet on the sensor was still strong enough to hold onto the bolt. I could see it already.... a simply replace job turn into a major tranny dropping job or something and all I am is a shade tree mach.
