It stalls in the middle of driving and is hard to start.Iv'e read online that it could be the camshaft position sensor, and on this engine there are two.I had the codes read an this was confirmed.

The codes were read at a local Auto zone.I'll replace both camshaftsensors while I'm doing it.But where can i go as far as a reference for the location of them, if this is something i can do.?

Accepted Answer

HERE are the locations. It is a simple process on tha cam sensors. One ten mm bolt and they come right out,disconnect the connector and install the new one. That easy. Bank 1 is a little tricky to get to,but you can do it without removing anything.Except for the air hose going to the throttle.
