Where can I get a flywheel position sensor?
 
I checked Pelican and the "other" big online Porsche store, but neither seem to carry it.

Thanks for any help!

dunno what you would need it for if it's the Timing Mark Sender for TDC you are talking about...I thought it was just for dealer service use

you have an 84 engine with a late 8v AFM & DME true ?

Yes. Early engine, late brain. I need the two sensors that plug into the bellhousing. One of them counts the number of teeth on the flywheel to get a RPM reading and the other one reads reads a small magnet that tells the computer where TDC is.

Hope that clears it up a little bit more! Thanks!

Tony, if your engine starts easily hot or cold and runs there's probably is nothing wrong with the reference sensor or the speed sensor...unless you know there are damaged, or have a weird intermittent starting problem or they are not ajusted at .8mm

I'm pretty sure they're all the same on the 944/NA/turbo/S so real common at a wrecking yard or eBay for less then $30 or new for $120

easy to test too...with an ohm meter (multimeter) across 2 of the 3 pins you should measure around 950 to 1050 ohms (give or take)...more info at:

also a lot of discussion about this in a long ‘no start’ post at:

And please add your car's year and model and transmission type to your sigiture line in your Personal Preferences.

so if these sensors are not exactly .8mm the car will almost def not start?
