Re: engine speed sensor
What are the code numbers? Do you mean Crankshaft or Camshaft position sensor?

Re: engine speed sensor
Okay, that's the crankshaft position sensor. It's on the bellhousing of the transmission. I replaced mine, it wasn't too hard but it is a b*tch to reach. May be easier from underneath or the drivers side wheel well. I had my Supercharger off at the time (or plenum for non SC).
It doesn't actually impact the running of the truck according to the service manual, so it sucks that we fail emissions for it. We have a distributor so its not like a car with coil packs.
