on the Chrysler engine (420a) you do need a puller and installer to deal with the crankshaft dampener pulley.
Remove the center nut, often you'll need to use an impact wrench so plan on getting other stuff out of the way. Borrow, rent or buy a wheel puller. There should be a couple threaded holes in the dampener pulley for you to connect the puller. The puller should easily remove the dampener pulley for you. Good luck.
The dual Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor is mounted to the front of the engine, attached to an aluminum bracket mounted to the left side of the engine at the timing chain cover. A 4-wire connector plugs into the sensor, connecting it to the ignition control module.AnswerThe crankshaft senser is located under the dampener pulley. Remove the serpentine belt. Remove right front wheel. Remove plastic access cover that's behind that wheel. With an impact wrench remove dampener pulley bolt. With an Dampener pulley puller remove pulley. There is a plastic cover that snaps in place over the senser, remove it, and you will have access to the senser.Eric
You will need a special 3 jaw puller and an insert for the puller to push against.
The crankshaft pulley on a PT Cruiser bolts on. After removing the vehicle belt and pulley bolt, use a pulley puller to break the pulley loose and remove it.
After removing the right front tire and fender liner, you remove the serpentine belt. You then remove the crank bolt and use a puller to remove the pulley.After removing the right front tire and fender liner, you remove the serpentine belt. You then remove the crank bolt and use a puller to remove the pulley.
The timing chain cover IS the oil pump. You need to remove the dampener pulley (that's the pulley that drives the serpentine belt) then you can remove the timing chain cover/oil pump.
Depending on engine displacement in general remove belt-s then bolt holding pulley to the crankshaft then using a puller remove the pulley, when installing use a installer not a hammer to put the pulley on the crankshaft.
It is fairly difficult to change a water pump on a Chrysler Cirrus. First, you remove the crankshaft pulley, remove one engine mount, take off the timing belt, and finally gain access to the pump. You can then feel free to switch them out.
You have to unscrew the tensioner bolt and remove the serpentine belt first, then change the pulley and replace the belt.You have to unscrew the tensioner bolt and remove the serpentine belt first, then change the pulley and replace the belt.
To change the alternator on a 1997 Chrysler LHS, first detach the negative battery cable using a wrench and loosen the alternator lower mounting bolt. Next, remove the upper radiator support and loosen the alternator pivot bolt. Then, slip the belt off the alternator's pulley and remove the alternator mounting bolt.
You remove no pulleys. Just loosen the belt and then remove the alternator.
