The crankshaft sensor is by the crankshaft pullie (the balancer)
I have been having problems with finding the crankshaft sensor, what should i do or what can i do?
There is no distributor. The PCM uses a crankshaft sensor and a camshaft sensor to determine when to fire the coils.

front of engine, behind the harmonic balancer
On a 1999 GMC Suburban with a 5.7L engine, the crankshaft position sensor is typically located on the engine's lower front, near the crankshaft pulley. It is mounted near the oil pan on the driver's side and is accessible from underneath the vehicle. The sensor is usually held in place by a bolt and connected to the engine's wiring harness. Always refer to a repair manual for specific details and diagrams for your model.
Pretty sure it's at the front end of the crank.
Front, lower, passenger side of engine.
The sensor is down on the front of the oil pan just behind the crankshaft pully, which is located at the front of the engine.
check the CKP sensor (crankshaft position sensor). It is usually used for injector triggering on 90's GM vehicles.
On a 1986 GMC Vandura 3500 with a 350 engine, the crankshaft position sensor is typically located near the bottom front of the engine, close to the crankshaft itself. However, it's important to note that models from this era may not have a crankshaft position sensor, as they often relied on mechanical systems for ignition timing. If your specific model does have one, check near the harmonic balancer or flywheel area for the sensor. Always consult the vehicle's service manual for precise location and specifications.
On a 2002 GMC Sonoma, the crankshaft position sensor is typically located near the bottom of the engine, mounted on the engine block. It is often found close to the crankshaft pulley or flywheel, on the driver's side of the engine. To access it, you may need to remove some components, such as the air intake or other obstructive parts. Always refer to a service manual for specific details and guidance.
