I've replaced the crank position sensor. But I cannot find where the CPS goes. It's a used 5.2 replaced in truck sometime before me. All I know is it's peppy when running right and numbers don't match truck. CPS is not located under distributor cap also not next to thermostat housing. I'm lost guys.
