Got the above code. Replaced cam sensor. Turned off car and tried to restart, nothing. Put old sensor back in and car starts. However, it runs great for about fifteen miles then it acts like it is not getting any gas and then shuts off. Cannot restart for at least fifteen minutes. Then it happens all over again. Should I replace the crankshaft sensor? Can you tell me where it is located at?

P1345 is a fault with the cam sensor and replacing the crank sensor is not going to make this code go away. You need to test/check why this code is coming on.

The replacement cam sensor you used seems to be faulty. Try another replacement sensor. Check the cam sensor wiring circuit.
