97 Nissan Maxima4th gen car stalls and stumbles at times. Crankshaft position sensor?
How many crankshaft position sensors are there on it? I bought a crank shaft position sensor but I’m not sure if I got the right one. The one I found under the car doesn’t look like the one I bought. Will it work for it if it doesn’t look the same?

the lower one tends to get covered in oil over time and need to be cleaned off, where as my upper one i tried replacing with an aftermarket sensor and the car wouldn't even start, so i put the original ( 24 y/o ) sensor back on and she started. car wouldn't run with the aftermarket sensor.

1. Buy a code reader or cheap scanner.
2. Use it to read the codes.
3. Look up the codes on the Internet to see which part to buy, and where it lives.
4. Perhaps there is a you tube video or something.
This is how most of us do this. Investigate on your own. Do some research, take some risks.
Us old timers had no code reader, no codes to read, no computer. We fixed our cars based on symtoms and basic measurements. Also a sound understanding of why cars work.

My crank sensor slowly failed, causing stumbling, loss of power etc. until the car finally refused to start (no spark). It never threw a code.
