CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR - 2.5L

REMOVAL

1. Remove speed control servo from driver's side strut tower.
2. Remove crankshaft position sensor retaining bolt Crankshaft Position Sensor
3. Pull crankshaft position sensor straight up out of the transaxle housing.
4. (Disconnect crankshaft position sensor electrical connector from the wiring harness connector.

INSTALLATION - ADJUSTABLE All vehicles will be equipped with an adjustable crankshaft position sensor. This can be identified by an elongated mounting hole in the sensor.
NOTE: If the removed sensor is to be reinstalled, clean off the old spacer on the sensor face. A NEW SPACER must be attached to the sensor face before installation. If the sensor is being replaced, confirm that the paper spacer is attached to the face of the new sensor Crankshaft Position Sensor and Spacer

1. Install sensor in transaxle and push sensor down until contact is made with the drive plate. While holding the sensor in this position, install and tighten the retaining bolt to 12 N·m (105 in. lbs.) torque.
2. Connect crankshaft position sensor electrical connector to the wiring harness connector.
3. Attach connector to heater tube bracket.
4. Install speed control servo. Tighten nuts to 9 N·m (80 in. lbs.) torque.

that sounds like a bad fuel injector system

A couple of possibilities - a MAF sensor, the TPS (throttle positioning sensor) and possibly a trans filter & fluid change. The TPS would explain the delay in accell/shifting issues. You might want to check Landrovers only forum and contact Disco Mike (resident expert who will even call you at home to diagnose. He's a retired Rover Service mgr.)

towbar on a disco 2 is a straight forward bolt on job it attaches to the rear chassis and crossmember any good quality towbar kit will come with all bolts and washers you need plus instructions . if you get genuine landrover electrics they plug straight in without having to cut or join any wires.

hope this helps

Hi!!

here are illustrations of the CKP (crankshaft position) sensor in 2.3L and 3.0L.

Note: In the bottom of the 2.3L drawing says Trottle Position (TP) Sensor, this is wrong, It should say CKP Sensor.


2.3L Engine


The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor is located to the left of the crankshaft pulley.

Fig. Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor location-2.3L engine


3.0L Engine


The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor is located just behind the crankshaft pulley on engine block.

The cost of the sensor is $23 bucks at AutoZone.
