how many types of engines are there in the 2.5 made in 98. why is there 3 different types of dis packs on it. same as crankshaft sensor, 2 types ??

[Marks DTM Calib]

Two types in that era.....three types over the full production period

The diference on the two that affect you is the plug shape.

This may seem bloody mad but, in a volume production environment you get supply issues at times and connectors are not the most standardised items put there.

Hence a change in loom supplier and/or sensor/actuator supplier could well result ina  change of connector.

If you take the scuttle panel off Rich it aint to bad. A deep 8mm slim socket and an extension will do the trick. Should be 4 bolts

So,although the connectors are different the dis pack is exactly the same ?

well its gonna happen in the morning, got a gazebo to put over car so should be ok.

Yes

I have found on all the mini facelifts we have done the crank sensor connection is the oval one....... apparently some are the square ones though :-?
