Hi,

I have a 1996 Ford F-150 with the 300 CI L6 engine. The engine light has been on for a few months, and I finally got the time to check it out (i'm in the military and i don't have much time to mess around with it). We checked it with an ODB II computer, and it came back saying that banks 1 and 2 were running too lean, and also that the crankshaft position sensor was bad. So i bought a new crankshaft position sensor, and am planning on installing it this weekend, does anyone happen to know where it is located on this motor? We checked the Haynes manual and it wasn't in there... any help would be greatly appreciated.

It is under the timing pointer on the front of the engine.
Remove the cooling fan and shroud
remove attaching screws and timing pointer
disconnect wiring and remove sensor
to install reverse removal procedure tighten attaching screws to 70-75 INCH lbs.
Need to check for a vacuum leak on the lean running condition.
