The car will not turn over. It revs when you turn the key
Starter Fluid test did not work, seems to be no spark.
I checked the following items Good:
Fuel pump/ filter
starter
alternator
battery
all lines
oil
Plug/ Wires
I was told I needed to replace the Crank-Shaft Positioning Sensor, I need to know how to replace this sensor and another option if this is not the problem.
