    Still would not idle without stalling unless rpm was kept above 3k. WOW! I noticed the dealer had left the connections to, I think, the crank sensor out of position. I unplugged the bundle and tried to start, nothing. I started to unplug the single wire and the wire pulled free of the...

    show down Removed MAF cable and the symtems are worse. Started and stalled. tried again with more throttle. As soon as I backed off throttle it stalled. Does that indicate the MAF is okay? Ceck for vacuum leaks? I think put thumb over the tube after pulling off is not going to be the...

    After changing cam sensor, still surging and stalling at idle. Some oil in the cam sensor casing, Tach still stuck at 8000. Caution! Cam sensor change requires tiny hands, so bring some to the party. So,no change. Any ideas what is logically next.

    cleaned around what I think was the connections to the IAC. Idled longer befoer stalling , but the tach needle jumped! The needle had been resting just below the 7000 RPM mark and when I hit the throttle to keep her going the needle jumped back toward the 7000 mark each time. ?? Jim

    Thanks much. Cam sensor is next. Your right 19 is not explicit. Maybe after dealing with 18 something will come up. This baby is acting like a top fuel in bad tune or a timing nightmare. An SHO back-firing, unfathinable!
