Engine turns, no spark, no fuel. Just replaced plugs, wires, cap, rotor, and coil.

The crankshaft position sensor (CPS) on a 1995 Chevrolet Cheyenne is located on the front of the engine, just below the harmonic balancer or inside the ignition distributor

Thank you for the reply Ken.
Unfortunately after some more research. This truck has a 1993 7.4L in it. So, new question is.... is there and where is the crank sensor located on a 1993 454 small block?
