yes
you dont. It is auto timed thru the camshaft sensor and crankshaft sensor, You have to have the timing belt timing marks right on to get correct timing.
The crankshaft position sensor is located behind the timing cover and above the crankshaft gear. the timing belt my have to be removed to access the bolts on the sensor.
The timing sensor is called a Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP). It is located at the 10 O'Clock positon on the crankshaft pulley.
The crankshaft position sensor measures the rotational position of the crankshaft for the engine computer. That info is required for fuel and ignition timing.The crankshaft position sensor measures the rotational position of the crankshaft for the engine computer.

According to my Haynes Manual the timing as not adjustable. It is controlled by the onboard computer. What can make a difference ,however is if the mechanical timing of the camshafts etc which is set when you change the timing belt or other repairs. Normally if the mechanical timing is correct the engine timing will be correct unless you have a sensor or computer problem. From the bigtomato
if you cant figure it out you shouldn't be trying to replace it
it is located under the timing cover above the crankshaft pulley
Controls the ignition timing.
there is no timing belt sensor, only camshaft position sensors and crankshaft position sensor.
the crankshaft sensor is located behind the harmonic balancer on the ft timing cover
the crankshaft position sensor is located right behind the harmonic balancer mounted on the timing cover
I really need to know how to tell if i have a loose crankshaft or crankshaft position sensor. Or could it be the timing belt . We just put in a new water pump but the timing belt was on TDC when we were done. PLEASE HELP !!!! Its running pretty crappy...
