Unhappy crank sensor? PLEASE HELP!!!!

ok,i have a 1997 G.C.L-zj---
and it will stall out on me,sometimes it fires rite back up...other times it'll take between 10-30 min. but it always starts back up.
The real problem is,i bought a 99xj and i really need to sell it to get some money back. It has 265.000 miles on it but it's a very sound jeep.

I've replaced the map sensor,the icm,freash tune up,new battery,3 month old fuel pump...and from what i"ve been learning from the fourm this very well could be a Crank Sensor.

what do you's think? I have a small idea where it's located but I'm not 100% sure,a picture or a diagram,or a (link) video would really help me alot.

so plz. send me some info. before my wife fire's me....

thanks and GOD BLESS!!!!

Cool

Crank sensor is located on the driver side in the top of the bell housing. It takes 2 bolts with 11mm heads, and one plug. Use a long extension, and a swivel from underneath, they should come right out. If you replace it, make sure you disconnect the battery!!! If you plug it in it may fry if you don't! Might want to make sure that's the problem though, that sensor is around $90! I worked on a 99 Cherokee once that was doing the same thing. Turns out that non of the sensors were bad, the computer was. Your wife would fire you for sure if that's it, around $800!
