The Bentley M60 CPS spec was wrong. If I remember correctly it is 540 Ohms. The Pelican site has an entry to this. Search it.
Would someone please confirm the spec for crank sensor on an M60?
Bentley states 1280 ohms for M50/60 and 540 ohm for M20/30
The one on my M60 is dead nuts 540. Too much of a coincedence for me.
Will someone tell me if this another Bentley typo before I spend $$ replacing good parts?

Thanks. I thought so
FYI The Bentley spec for the M60 ICV is also wrong, learned that one the hard way. The spec given for the M20/30 is the M60 spec. Don't know if it's correct for the M20/30

You can't trust this value even if it's well within range. A few years ago I had a problem with a '93 318i that would cut off at 3250 RPM when warm, as if hitting the rev limiter. Test after test with a multimeter confirmed all sensors were good. As a last resort I took it to the dealer. They start suspecting everything from cams out of timing to corrupt ECU. A week later, they consult the guru in new jersey and discover the crankshaft sensor leaking voltage. The resistance of the thing was dead center.
If the symptoms match a bad CPS, try a known good used one, despite what the resistance is.
