There are 25 CPS sensors and they are located inside your radiator............

Now now...

Don't confuse your CPS (crankshaft position sensor) with your CID (camshaft position sensor). If you are looking for your CID, its located behind your DIS - the grey electrical connector on your crossover tube - below the windshield. Its a black cylindrical connector with one wire going into it. Pics can be found here - http://www.shoforum.com/showthread.php?t=55430&highlight=CID+sensor - note that the first caption is wrong.

Some sympotoms of a CID failure can include engine bucking, stumbling, and being hard to start. The cam sensor is used to synchronize the injectors with the correct cylinders, it can cause some pretty weird symptoms when it fails or goes bad.

Dude I was just kidding! Chill out. I think I was having a bad day and it seemed like a stupid question. I apologize and am glad you fixed it.. Just don't pm me again.

Make sure your secondary butterflies close when you start your engine. They may be staying open causing a loss of power at low rpms.
