ok, well i have a 95 240 se, and when i was putting in a new clutch, i noticed that one of the sensors had gear oil in it. so i thought maybe that is the reason why my check engine light is on. so i clean it, and blow it out with compressed air. so about a week on the new clutch, and then all of a sudden, the light kicks back on. the car runs great, and i have not had a problem. the sensor i am talking about it the last one , on the top. closes to the tail shaft. what is it called? let me know so i can buy a new one. and since i am asking, what are the name of the rest of the sensors on top?thanks guysJ

First, don;t assume that's your problem...pull the ECU, check the codes yourself.

There are instruction is a few places...240SX.org has some, they've been posted here...

Or see here:

...and that sensor is the speed sensor...if it's bad, you won't have a working speedo.
