[Author Prev][Author Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Author Index][Thread Index] V8 Cam Position Sensor -- Any BTDTs?
(Sorry for re-posting the same question again, but I thought I'd give it one more shot before I'm forced to schedule the car into the dealer): I have a '90 V8 with the following symptoms: -- Surging at low RPMs when cold (O2 sensor is 2000 miles old) -- Slow/sluggish off the line up to about 30 mph -- Runs great at high speed Computer returns a fault code of 'Cam Position Sensor.' Any ideas regarding: -- Where is the sensor (in the distributor or under the cam cover)? -- How to determine if its a bad sensor, or the cam is off (recent timing belt replacement)? -- How do you determine which sensor is bad (or is there only one sensor between the two cams)? -- How much fun is it to replace the sensor? Any BTDTs out there? Thanks.
