The way to access is by removing right front wheel , then the plastic splash shield. Then you will need to remove belt and harmonic balancer(need puller for this). The sensor is located behind that. You will most likely need a special alignment tool to align new sensor. If not used you will probably be doing the job again because exact alignment is a must. To my knowledge GM dealers are the only ones with this tool. I had same problem w/92 olds acheiva 3.3. Replaced it 2 times myself,trying to get alignment correct. got it very close 2nd time and it lasted about 6 months before the sensor gave out again. If not aligned properly it keeps scraping against inside of harmonic balancer interpreter ring until the plastic and magnets(the sensor) fly apart.Your car stops running immediately and your screwed.   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
