The cam sensor is located where you would normally find the distributor. The top plastic piece is the actual cam sensor and the piece it's mounted on is called the synchronizer. DO NOT disturb the synchronizer unless you have the knowledge to mark it's position properly before removing or you have the tool required to reset it's position.
