Where is the ckp sensor on a 2002 Mercury Sable LS 3.0 24V DOHC V6? I have slight missfire.

    That would be an ignition coil

    You do not replace parts in an effort to
    correct anything

    The individual components have to be tested first

    May i see the location of the crankshaft position sensor on a 2003 Mercury sable ls premium sable 3.0L

    USA car? yes/no? lost spark did you>? or DTC p03xx errors>?
    that sensor is called CKP, and on cars engines it can be many places, some even oddly places, it is not the cam sensor CMP
    the 2003 , 3.0 liter V6

    the manual covers this.
    https://eautorepair.net/Marketing/Default.asp

    i will show a photo of it mounted, just using google . (brave)

    some times just pretend to buy the part at the dealer, Merc
    and see where it is , at ford.com
    the dealer says it also fits Ford Mustang 1996 - 2014
    that fact makes it more easy.
    oooooohooooooo , there are 2 engines that year,
    2 valve and 4 valve per cyclinder, oops not told shown in the service manual
    2V
    The crankshaft position (CKP) sensor:
    • is a variable reluctance sensor.
    • is mounted on the engine front cover.
    • is triggered by a 36-minus-1 tooth trigger wheel located on the crankshaft pulley and damper.
    • provides base timing and crankshaft speed (rpm) to the powertrain control module (PCM).
    4V, ok , luck you its the same but not CMP

    Does my 2003 mercury Sable LS wagon with duratec 3.0 liter v6 24v DOHC engine have two or four oxygen sensors? Getting lean codes for banks 1 and 2. Whistling noise under hood near air intake and engine...

    Your vehicle has four oxygen sensors. There is a vacuum line underneath the throttle body that regularly fails, causing the lean condition, and the whistling and surging. Very dificult to see, but with the engine running usually you can fine the vacuum leak with your fingers. Hose is non-reinforced rubber, and is shaped in a 90 degree bend. If memory serves me right, it is the pcv hose. Replace this and your problems will cease.
