showing a P 0340 code need advice
This morning I drove to work and things were fine but after 10miles or so if I pressed the gas and went above 2500rpm it would stutter and bog down, it idles fine and once it cools down it revs fine. The code is a crankshaft positions sensor please advise.

If you rec'd a code, it may be an early warning sign of a future failure of the Cam Position Sensor, or as you mention just a glitch, which could be the ECU, or the sensor having a bad day.
If it happens again, replace the sensor.

same here the same exact thing happens to me i changed it like a month ago and it just came on again. now its like once a week. goes away and comes back...ugh...i got 98k miles almost stock i think s2 injectors timing belt and tensioner and plugs should to the trick. cuz when the check engine light comes off it pops through the intake and exhasut under a load

A camshaft sensor ($35) from Advance Auto fixed mine. 56K - changed plugs (OEM Champion RE14MCC5 @ .085"! Changed to Champion #3570 Pt.). Aftermarket gascap tossed - MOPAR $15 cap got rid of the sporadic gas cap codes. Occasional irrelevant EGR code thought to be leaking resevoir on OCC. Runs like new - she ate up the rest of her Kumho tires - see other thread.

The OEM Champs had .085" the first time they were off the car - 56k! The center electrode was quite short. I just can't believe they didn't spring for Pt's! Of course, it came with dino-oil in it, too. Still runs like a top. I still need a new code reader - it won't come from H-F, that's for sure. I'm guessing the plugs needed changing at 24k.
