New Napa Echlin crank position sensor for my 97 4.0 AX15. Cleared the codes. Started right up...no cranking for 3 or 4 seconds...so awesome it's not the pressure regulator in the fuel pump going bad.
Checked on the DEI sound tunnel insulation and it's holding strong after some snow wheeling and driving over a lot of downed branches on a trail...picked a few sticks and rocks out of the shovel.
Looked up and saw a wire that I have no idea how I missed it. Looks like a ground from PO installed something...harness has been remarkably intact so this is my first evidence of something being installed and removed.
Noticed a bolt sitting proud of the cylinder head and chased that for a bit...and the ground bolt on the back of the engine was loose.
Sprayed some break free on the howling AC clutch...Sanders has shipped me a replacement... didn't respond to my email so I hope it's the right part or I'll be hunting for a shorter belt.
