I have a '96 dodge caravan NOT grand. It's a 3.3 liter engine Automatic.
As i was on a normal drive, the van Quit on me with no' warning. I checked many things along the road to find out that there is No spark going to the spark plugs.. Not' a gradual problem. It happened instantly . It does Not make a wizzing sound like it's the timing belt. I was told one of two problems might have occured?? 1. the electronic block (distributor) that the spark plug wires plug into is shot, and I need a new one of those ..OR, 2. It's a "CAM Sensor" that went bad?.. to make it an "instant" problem. Has anyone had a simular experience and final If in agreement?... can you tell me Where' this "cam sensor" might be located?? Help Please..... Gary
