If the crankshaft position sensor isn’t working properly, it can also cause the check engine light to come on. Another sign of the faulty crankshaft position sensor is the tachometer isn’t working properly. The tachometer is the gauge typically located next to your speedometer on your dashboa...
A crankshaft position sensor is notorious for getting hot and failing, responsible for providing engine rotation feedback information to the car's computer when this sensor stops working fuel is then cut off to the fuel injectors making the engine stall. A crankshaft sensor usually takes about 20...
A spark causes the engine's piston to go down and rotate the crankshaft. As the throttle pedal approaches the floor, more air is taken in, causing the crankshaft to rotate more quickly. This is what allows your car to accelerate when driving. However, If you're driving your car and losi...
This indicator has to do with how fast your engine operates. It measures how many times the crankshaft makes one complete rotation and how many pistons go up and down each minute. However, don’t immediately assume that RPM is directly responsible for how fast your car moves. Each car ...
Modern cars will usually stall because of a sensor failure. All of the sensors are important, but anything with "position" in the name is critical. The throttle-, crankshaft- and camshaft-position sensors are three that your computer just can't compensate for if they malfunction. Mass airflow...

While the 7.3L Power Stroke was always fed by a fixed geometry Garrett turbocharger with a 60 mm compressor wheel (inducer), it was available in three different forms in the pickup truck segment (from ’94.5 to '03). The turbo shown here is what you would find on a late ’99 to ’...
