your in for a heck of a job replacing your crank sensor its down by the crank gear behind the lower timing cover... minus well do the timing belt / water pump while your in there ...

^^^ What he said. Remove the timing belt and the trigger wheel beneath it and you'll see the crank sensor. Who told you the crank sensor is bad anyway??

Its really not too bad, if you think it is going to be hell then it will be. Its all in how you tackle it. I can do a timing belt on this engine in under 2 hours start to finish. It would be a good idea to change the timing belt and water pump while your in there but realize if you just need it done asap its not necessary to remove the belt to get to the sensor and its only 2 bolts here is a pic.

That particular engine was a customers of mine, a dealership put a radiator in it that ended up having a hole in it. Consequently she ran out of water only 2 weeks after the rad was installed and blew her head gasket sucking coolant into the combustion chamber hydrolocking it and destroyed it. All they would do is give her a new radiator after I installed a new motor they would not even consider anything extra. Just a young college girl I felt bad for her.

That's rough. But if she had been watching her gauges it would never have happened. Most of the head gasket jobs I do are because of something stupid like a blown hose or a thrown belt-- all easily prevented.
