How do you replace the speed sensor on 1999 Mazda Miata?
You must change the transmission fluid as you do it or the oil will leak out the hole the sensor goes in. Its held in by one 10mm bolt on the passenger side of the transmission, next to the ladder frame. Drain the fluid, unbolt it, pry it out with a screwdriver, reconnect the new one, bolt it in, and fill the fluid, 2.1 qts i believe.

Where is the crankshaft sensor on a Chevy 5.3 liter?
The crank position sensor (for the Chevy Tahoe/Suburban/GMC Yukon/Full size trucks) is located near the back of the engine block, on the passenger side. Near the starter. Note - the crank sensor (as well as the cam sensor) can occasionally leak oil and drip down, making it appear to be a rear main seal leak. If you have a leak at the bell housing, don't automatically assume a rear main leak.
