help on position sensors - 8/27/2008 10:13:18 AM    LuckyBadAzzBoy   Posts: 4 Joined: 8/19/2008 Status: offline I got a 2000 eclipse with a 3.0L eng. I got 2 bad readings. The camshaft position sensor and the crankshaft position sensor. First question does the 3.0L even have a camshaft position sensor i looked for the part online it doesn''''t show. The car has 150k miles i''''m about to go ahead and change the timing belt and the crankshaft position sensor. It just started idling awful and shutting off on stop lights and signs , if i put it in nuetral and keep it at about 1k rpm it won''''t shut off and it runs fine when i''''m on the road. Any tips or ideas about whats going on. The plugs, wires, ignition coil and so fourth have all been already changed.   Post #: 1
