ACCELERATOR PEDAL
REMOVAL
CAUTION: Be careful not to damage or kink the
cable core wire (within the cable sheathing) while
servicing accelerator pedal or cables.
(1) From inside vehicle, hold up accelerator pedal.
Remove plastic cable retainer and throttle cable core
wire from upper end of pedal arm (Fig. 21). The plas-
tic cable retainer snaps into pedal arm.
(2) Insert a small screwdriver into square holes
located on pivots/bushings (Fig. 22). Twist screw-
driver to disengage pivot locks from pivot pin. Pivots
will be damaged when removing. Discard old pivots.
(3) Remove pedal/bracket assembly from vehicle.
INSTALLATION
(1) Position pedal/bracket assembly over pivot pin
(Fig. 22).
(2) Install two new pivots/bushings. Using large
pliers, press both bushings together until they bot-
tom on sides of pedal/bracket assembly. Bushing
retaining ears will snap into position when properly
installed.
(3) From inside vehicle, hold up accelerator pedal.
Install throttle cable core wire and plastic cable
retainer into and through upper end of pedal arm
(the plastic retainer is snapped into pedal arm).
When installing plastic retainer to accelerator pedal
arm, note index tab on pedal arm (Fig. 21). Align
index slot on plastic cable retainer to this index tab.

CRANKSHAFT POSITION
SENSOR
DESCRIPTION - 3.9L
The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor is located
near the outer edge of the flywheel (starter ringear).
DESCRIPTION - 5.2L/5.9L
The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor is located
near the outer edge of the flywheel (starter ringear).
DESCRIPTION - 8.0L
The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor is located on
the right-lower side of the cylinder block, forward of
the right engine mount, just above the oil pan rail
(Fig. 23).
OPERATION - 3.9L
Engine speed and crankshaft position are provided
through the CKP sensor. The sensor generates pulses
that are the input sent to the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM). The PCM interprets the sensor input
to determine the crankshaft position. The PCM then
uses this position, along with other inputs, to deter-
mine injector sequence and ignition timing.
The sensor is a hall effect device combined with an
internal magnet. It is also sensitive to steel within a
certain distance from it.The flywheel/drive plate has groups of notches at
its outer edge. On 3.9L V-6 engines, there are three
sets of double notches and three sets of single
notches (Fig. 24).
The notches cause a pulse to be generated when
they pass under the sensor. The pulses are the input
to the PCM.
The engine will not operate if the PCM does not
receive a CKP sensor input.
OPERATION - 5.2L/5.9L
Engine speed and crankshaft position are provided
through the CKP sensor. The sensor generates pulses
that are the input sent to the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM). The PCM interprets the sensor input
to determine the crankshaft position. The PCM then
uses this position, along with other inputs, to deter-
mine injector sequence and ignition timing.
The sensor is a hall effect device combined with an
internal magnet. It is also sensitive to steel within a
certain distance from it.
On 5.2/5.9L V-8 engines, the flywheel/drive plate
has 8 single notches, spaced every 45 degrees, at its
outer edge (Fig. 25).
The notches cause a pulse to be generated when
they pass under the sensor. The pulses are the input
to the PCM. For each engine revolution, there are 8
pulses generated on V-8 engines.

The engine will not operate if the PCM does not
receive a CKP sensor input.
OPERATION - 8.0L
The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor detects
notches machined into the middle of the crankshaft
(Fig. 26).There are five sets of notches. Each set contains
two notches. Basic ignition timing is determined by
the position of the last notch in each set of notches.
Once the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) senses
the last notch, it will determine crankshaft position
(which piston will next be at Top Dead Center). An
input from the camshaft position sensor is also
needed. It may take the module up to one complete
engine revolution to determine crankshaft position
during engine cranking.
The PCM uses the signal from the camshaft posi-
tion sensor to determine fuel injector sequence. Once
crankshaft position has been determined, the PCM
begins energizing a ground circuit to each fuel injec-
tor to provide injector operation.
REMOVAL - 3.9L/5.2L/5.9L
The sensor is bolted to the top of the cylinder block
near the rear of right cylinder head (Fig. 27).
(1) Remove the air cleaner intake tube.
(2) Disconnect crankshaft position sensor pigtail
harness from main wiring harness.
(3) Remove two sensor (recessed hex head) mount-
ing bolts (Fig. 27).
(4) Remove sensor from engine.
