As above.... im changing the oil and ive read that i can disconnect a sensor so i can crank the engine to circulate the oil without starting the engine..?? crank, cam shaft sensor..?????

And where is it located, is it the one above the main crank pully..?? below the alternator..?

Dan,

crank sensor - which is located behind the main pulley / under the alternator.
both should work (other is over on the right hand side of the block - looking at the front)

you will probably get a CEL light in doing this - so you might need to do a reset (green & black plugs) to clear it.

good luck
