Hello. I'm trying to locate the camshaft position sensor. Everything I've looked up says it's by the oil pressure sensor but there is nothing there is it possible this vehicle just doesn't have one. Thank you for your time.

Hi,

They didn't use a camshaft position sensor on these in 1994. By chance, are you referring to a crankshaft position sensor?

Let me know what is happening with the vehicle. For example, it won't start because there is no spark to the plugs

I will watch for your reply.

Take care,

Joe

Thank you, Joe. I already replaced the Crankshaft sensor and am going to replace the other one, but I guess not. Thank you again.

You are very welcome. Are you still having problems? If so, let me know what is happening. Also, if there are issues, here is a link that explains how to retrieve diagnostic trouble codes. It doesn't require a scanner.
