I have had an issue with loss of power when accelerating and even my car dying. The OBD light is on. I just received a quote from a service station to replace the crankshaft sensor and get a tune up. They want to charge me 370.00 to do this. Is this repair easy to do on my own and is this amount a reasonable amount to pay for the problem I am having. They also suggest fuel injection and carb flush and air filter replacement.

Hello, Here are the instructions and location of the sensor so you can change it out yourself. Check out the diagrams (Below). I have included all engines. Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
