Are you maybe thinking the little bracket on the front of the timing cover that the throttle spring hooks on to?

 

Im almost done with this little project, I just dont want to put these parts on wrong and start it up, I know the big long spacers go on the bolts but where the prong lookin thing go and maybe if anyone knows where a picture of this together is id be in their debt. Thanks for all the help from everybody. Will Burris

 

it gos on the top bolt of the 2 pictured it is used to keep the crank sensor wires out of the fan belt and holds it up against the block

 

Thats what I thought but it looks nothing like mine. Mine looped all the way arond and was wrapped around the wire, not prongs.

Like this...kinda...

What year truck is that off of? Perhaps it was one of the many little changes made though the years.

 

any pictures of the sensor riding over the crank, like its sposed to operate in the sticky?

 

Dont think so. Double check.

What are you needing to know? If I had something more than a camera phone Id try and get you some pics but for now I can try to describe it in a textly manner...

 

how exactly that sensor sit above the wheel its reading, theres two notches in that harmonic deal, does it matter if you line it up, and isnt there a certain amont of clearance that sensor is sposed to have from the crankshaft?

 

Yes. If you haven't noticed, the CPS (crank position sensor) is magnetic. It is positioned right above the harmonic balancer, right over those notches. Those notches in the balancer trigger a magnetic response, or lack there of, every time the balancer makes a rotation.
Know what I mean?

If I remember correctly, .050" clearance. But Id double check on that number.

I tried getting a pic with my camera phone but its to dark in my engine bay and to much stuff in the way to get a real good view of the CPS

Google turned up this pic...

 

your the man gasgano God bless you, thats just what I needed.

 

what is that a half inch of clearance?

 

No, fifty thousandths of an inch. 0.050". Measure with a brass or plastic feeler - or just fold a matchbook cover over once and call it close enough.

 

No problem.
