Answer
Hi Jlowe:

Well it can be a bunch of things. Fist off see if the engine has spark you can get a spark tester cheap at a parts store. crank the engine and see if it has spark on all 6 cylinders. alo see if it has injector pulse. you need a noid light again a cheap tool. if the engine doesn't have spark or injector pulse it could be a crank sensor or an ignition module or even something as simple as a blown fuse. but to answer your question the crnak sensor in in the engine block on the back side of the engine between the engine and the transmission it has a wire harness on it with 2 wires yellow and purple are the colors. Good luck :)
