How-To's / DIY Crankshaft Position Sensor + Gaskets
« on: March 16, 2009, 09:24:50 AM »
My friend has a 1991 318 with a starting problem. (Stomp test shows crankshaft Position Sensor), we cleaned the area around the sensor and the car started.
The problem is that the sensor is getting goobered up by oil. So we are going to remove the Timing cover and replace the gasket. We are also going to replace the oil pan gasket. While we are at it we are going to replace the thermostat as well. I was just wondering if there are any booby traps because there is no book to guide us..
Does anybody have this outlined somewhere?
Thanks..
