Sensor sence
 
Can someone please help my sanity this evening
Im a proud owner of a 1984 928
Im completely in need of your help if possible
My sweetheart just decided not start ,,, not even a pop or whisper
I Did indeed narrow it down to just a few electrical issues
the fuel pump is fine , the distrbuter coil is fine
the distributer gets absolutely no fire
I tested the fuel injection plugs .. they have a constant 12 volts ... no pulse

my issue presently is finding the exact location of the Crank sensor
all fingers point towards the sensor going bad at first glance - I glance a lot ... hah
Here is my most simple question
I absolutely need to know where the crank sensor is located
where is the crank sensor located exactly
I do know where it is Not located and cannot find it at this point
however ...
I read an article with pictures and a bunch miss information
it looked , tasted and smelled like it was the item .. but actually was some sort of test port and just hangin in the wind ...a big no go
it sure looked like it coulda woulda shoulda been, tasted and smelled like it could be a crank sensor but theyre 100% wrong
it smelled like the crank sensor .. but absolutely is not it the prize

this sensor a rounded cylndrical item was located on top of the flywheel just down from the firewall
it was very tough to get out but when I followed the plug end ( a round sort of plug in ) all my hopes ended
this was some sort of test plug and absolutely came to a dead and not connected to anything deal
it was attached to the drivers side valve cover and thats it
I even googled up an article that had pics showing the same location described - obviously the guy was completely lost
and now Im at completely confused
they also described it to be behind a round plastic throttle pulley ... I have no pulley with that description nor can I see a crank sensor on top of the engine
where is this lil rascal located
any help would be awfully appreciated
Im completely lost
cheers Gents

Sorry, you will need to go to a 928 forum. We only know and deal with 912 air cool engines.
