I show the method I use to get the proper air gap on a GM crank sensor. It's an old trick my grandmother taught me and is a pretty fast method to use to make sure you are setting it to the proper limit

It wasnt until my truck started shuttering that i was questioned if my sensor had shims or not. The previous owner did not have shims so when i ordered a new crank sensor i just pulled it out and put the new one. It started shuttering so i changed out the fuel filter, fuel pump, fuel lines, plugs, wires, distributor and just went ahead and put a new timing chain while i was at it. What a waste of time after watching this video come to find out some sensors dont come with shims, so they were put on and wham, it runs now. SMDH.

If the crankshaft position sensor, or timing cover, are moved, removed, replaced, or disturbed in any way, the focus point of the sensor changes and the relearn data that the PCM uses is incorrect. If the engine or PCM is replaced, the relearn is necessary as well. Incorrect relearn data has a direct affect on ignition timing and injector timing and will cause a multitude of driveability issues

Great video. I am in the same exact scenario. I was wondering if you could relay the pinouts with color codes. Only the center yellow wire is connected the other two are detached. The replacement part by BWD has all white wires (ABC) and no schematic. Supplier was no help.
Thank-you again for the great videos.

Had a similar issue with my 13' outback 3. 6. Subaru has a shim kit but they want you to pay for it. Pretty ridiculous. They build a flaw into their vehicles but expect their customers to pick up the tab. The ultimate insult is that the kit is absurdly expensive. 60 bucks for a few gloried washers.

A side note to anyone that cares. I was getting a p0300 code on my 2002 chevy silverado. Took it to 3 mechanics, couldn't solve it. I replaced my crank sensor after researching as much as possible. Wasn't throwing a crank code at all. Fixed my p0300. Finally a mechanic says it! Thanks Mr. O!

I have. 98 Silverado 5. 7l. New distributor. Crank sensor plugs wires and pcm. Keeps frying coil packs and icms. Had it in a shop and they adjusted timing. But didn't fix the issue. Showing cam crank correlation code. And crank sensor variation not learned. Any help is appreciated

the piece I have must have broke in the hole. The one that came out is smaller then the replacement? Do they seperate? Or do I grab whats in there and pull on it? It looks like the piece in there is metal? Nobody can answer this yet.

Is it possible that the crank position sensor can be going bad without a code because I have replace all ignition parts as well as the fuel pump and I still get a cut off and most of the times it starts back up sometimes it's don't?

I got a 1999 chevy Tracker with the same error P0335, and i pull out the crankshaft sensor, it measure 612 Ohms, and i also checked voltage and couldn't
find any voltage. any suggestions what it could be? Help! Please!

Never seen a shim with a sensor but that was all my problems except for the loose coil causing high primary volts. If not a ACDelco part, GET TWO lol Non GM parts are cheap becuse they didnt pass speck
