Crankshaft position sensor?

So that would be by the starter and not on the front of the block? I have asked everyone and I a being told it is by the timing chain. So I do not want to take stuff off that I do not need to.

So what all do I need to remove to get to it?

Well if you have problems with the crank shaft sensor on your truck look on the driver side by your shifter cable there is one bolt out one nut take it out in there it is.

The pic was good it just do not say what side it was on and trying to find it was a lil bet of a pain and come to find out it was the plugs that are all so a pain to change bc I have to take so much off to get to them on the passenger side but thank u to everyone that helped out

As if I bought bad gas. The vehicle stalled intermittently then failed to restart.

Intermittently means over 2 days and 150 miles.

At first fuel additive seemed to help, then after new filter, fuel pump and crank sensor total failure.

Mechanic reports good gas, and pressure ok, acts as if wants to start

if successful I will return with payment. Promise
thanks a million

I put a new DSS crate engine in my truck about a year ago and the new engine has about 6,000 miles on it. I often get the P0315 code, which is the crankshaft variation code. My truck runs fine and I would think if my crankshaft sensor was bad my truck would probably give me some problems. Would putting a new motor in my truck trigger this code when nothing is really wrong with my crankshaft sensor? I have been told that Ford do not have a relearn like the chevys do with crankshaft sensors. I would like to get my problem fixed.

Thanks,

Brian

My motor is a 4.6 modular motor that DSS racing sells. I'm sure this motor would probably work on several different years for the F150. Yes this motor is a direct replacement for my factory motor. What type of scanner would I need to scan my truck in the live data mode? My engine was installed by S&G Performance in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

First I had to replace the alternator then the battery ends, and now I had to buy a new battery, well it started twice and on the third time as soon as it started, it quit, my question is : could this be the crank shaft position censor?
I bought the truck in October last year only to find out later that it has been totaled and rebuilt. With a rebuilt title. Nice huh? Then the oil pan gasket had a leak so the seller charged me $390. To repair that,
we have had problems with the battery cables needing cleaned and disconnected and reconnected, then after all that we got it started and running and it sounded like it wasn't getting gas. So I hope this info helps you to understand the truck so you can help me. Sandra

Checking codes with a scanner is fine, except I cant start the truck to get to the auto store. And also I had popped a coil out to see if im getting spark, and there is no spark.

What would the theft device have to do with the truck starting or not. Now I talked to a mechanic and he said it is definitely the crank censor. By the way I do have power to the fusible link and the coil, but I didn't get anything at the censor, with key on and off, maybe it has to be running to get power at the censor, you think?
