My 97 Millenia is getting no spark. Changed the distributor cap, the rotor, changed out all the spark plugs and spark plug wires. Tested the Fuel pump and fuel filter. Replaced the oil pressure switch. Then, still no spark. Someone explained that it's quite possibly a problem with the Crankshaft Position Sensor. I can get one cheap, but my manual does not give a good explanation of where the sensor is located. Any help on informing me of where the crankshaft position sensor is located would be greatly appreciated.

Is it possible to replace this myself without having to remove any drive belts?

No, not without removing drive belts. You cannot gain access to the sensor without removing belts.
