96 Cavalier- check engine light indicates engine running lean due to camshaft sensor malfunction- would this cause the car to stall in high temps able to restart and drive after engine cools?

if that's the only code, then the sensor is most likely shorting while hot, and kills the ignition...so yes..also more diagnostics can be found in the book....
everyone should have a manual for their vehicle, and the library should have a professional shop manual available in the REFERENCE section...make copies of the right sections...good luck :)

Will the camshaft sensor stop the car from starting?
Yes. Cam sensor will determine the rotation of the camshaft, and if it does not sense it 'turning' the sensor will not allow the engine to start (it protects damaging the engine). Faulty camshaft or crankshaft sensors will stall engine and prevent restart until replaced.
Where is a camshaft sensor on 2000 Chevy Tracker?
My 2003 Chevy Tracker would not restart when it was hot and finally would stall & not restart until it sat and cooled off for 10 minutes. It would crank but not start. We replaced the camshaft it solved the problem. It was located at the back of the engine, at the top and is held by just one screw.

Why do some engines have both crankshaft and camshaft position sensors?
this is a bit of a history lesson: On early computer controlled engines the cam sensor was only really needed when the car started so the computer knew where the combustion cycle was. They ran a cross check with the crankshaft position sensor to insure the calibration was correct but complete failure would not cause serious trouble until the engine was shut off and a restart attempted. Next level was when the manufacturers realised that if they measured the wear on camshaft drive components and or error in where the camshaft was timed they could make the engine run better and make less pollution. Now with variable cam timing on multiple camshafts the computer measures the camshaft rotation to adjust the camshaft timing.
