It's on the gearbox, you need to get under the car to access it. It has a 3pin plug.
because the ecu compansates the engine speed for the load..as it does for electrical drag etc .Gone are the days of engines stalling under load!
The ignition timing is not adjustable. It is controled by the computer and is a result of inputs from several sensors including TPS (throttle position sensor) and map (manifold absolute pressure) or maf (mass airflow sensor) and engine speed from the crankshaft position sensor and engine position from the camshaft position sensor.
the vehicle speed sensor is on the tranny it hooks onto your speedometer. the engine speed sensor is on the front of the engine, two different sensors guys.
is the crankshaft position sensor the same and the engine speed sensor
The only speed sensor on the engine is inside the distributor.
In the gearbox
where is the engine speed sensor located on a 1999 dodge stratus 2.4 l
The speed sensor is located on the top of a manual transmission gearbox, it would fit into the top of the gearbox and kept in place by a single bolt. It will have a detachable plug that will have 2 or 3 wires that plugs into the speed sensor in the gear box.
The vehicle speed sensor is between the transmission and the engine from the front of the the engine bay, there is also a vehicle wheel speed sensors in in each tire
The vehicle speed sensor (vss) is generally located at the rear of the transmission.
Behind the engine, where the transmission and engine connect.
