My 99 PAU needs help. Can you help us please?

My 99 PAU, I love her, but she's not feeling so well. Lately she stalls, tachymeter falls to zero, and she cuts off alot. Went to get her inspected and was told the codes were showing I need a new crankshaft sensor (code comes and goes, so the sensor is probably the culprit) and it would cost about $250. AutoZone says the part is about $40 and can be replaced at home if you can get a diagram as to where the sensor is. Can someone PLEASE clue me in as to where I can find this info? Thanks so much in advance!

This procedure is for a 1997 Grand Prix GTP Series II 3800 engine and basically the same R&R for the 1999 Buick.

Although I didn't raise the question, just wanted to say thanks for the link. I bought a CKP a few months ago but couldn't determine what threads were needed for the puller so I was putting it off.

All in all an easy job. Did have to lower the engine a few inches so the puller would clear the body. But other than that, the procedure on the website is 100% correct...right down to the length of the bolts.
