1993 XJ Cherokee: Crank Sensor
How hard is it to replace? I am mechanically inclined and have done my own
water pump, radiator, plugs etc. I had it replaced once by the dealer for 200.00. I can get the part for 50.00 at Autozone. In the manual, it sees like a no brainer, but is there a trick to it. Any Help would be greatly appreciated... |
Re: 1993 XJ Cherokee: Crank Sensor
There is no 'trick' to replacing it, it's just hard to get to. Two bolts
hold it in place, that's it. You do need some long extensions with your ratchet set and be prepared to act as a contortionist to get your hands up where the CPS is located. Supporting your Cherokee by the body so the drivetrain can droop down to give more clearance may help. Insure you use the correct bolts to hold it in place since they also set the spacing for the CPS.

I didnt know that Autozone sold these now. It has always been one of those
dealer parts as far as I knew. I think they are the same price at the dealer, why not just get one there.

Re: 1993 XJ Cherokee: Crank Sensor
and be damn carefull not to drop one of the bolts into the hole in the
housing, or you will have to remove the tranny to get it out. john "Wildman" <mjswildman@excite.com> wrote in message news:hnr%a.129196$Oz4.26099@rwcrnsc54... > How hard is it to replace?
