I fitted a new crank sensor the rac fella removed and cleaned the old one then put it back wrong, so when I fitted the new one I fitted it the same way he had.

I think what happened is that he was reaching up to it and got it undone and it was all stuck together when he pulled it off, then the spacers fell off, so he must have thought they went in front. I can see it better to work on because I have a two post lift. If only it had broken down at my...
