There is no way that thing isreplaced in an hour. I asked both Jake and 6inarow for some tips, and both told me that I was in store for an all day event on a cam sensor.

It sucks, because you can SEE the thing with a mirror, but it's like trying to thread a nut onto a blt at the bottom of a deep coffeemug with the bolt comming in from the SIDE.

Mayfair you ever think about getting that little boy you got running around to give it a stab? I'm sure his arms / hands are smaller than yours. I know I can get my hands in places under the hood that the hubby can't.

(^^ just don't come on guys leave that alone I know you want to but just don't )

Naah, I don't think he has the patience. Y

ou can'tseewhere it is that you are trying to put the allen wrench on, so that would drive him nuts. The cam sensor is up under the VP-44 wedged inside of a holeliterally the size of a coffee cup slightly covered by a wire harness. Normally I wouldn' accept this kind of defeat, buthonestly the only way I can see myself getting the job done is to remove the entire left hand side of the truck. Basically, the entire fenderwell and everything in front of it.
