How do I Clean the Crank Position Sensor?
How do I clean the crank position sensor? Do you just remove the alternator cover, then you're able to access the sensor? Or do you have to remove the sensor? Also, what do I use to clean it?

One 10mm bolt holds it in. Unplug it, take it out, wipe it off, reinstall. If it's really dirty, figure out WHY (leaky front crank seal or oil pump?). |

I've never heard of anyone cleaning their crank sensor.
