the engine usually misfires at low rpm and the lifters clatter. Chevy small blocks were famous for this usually on cyl 5 and 7
Use a die grinder with a cutoff wheel and cut the race in half taking care not to touch the shaft. If the bearing race spun on the shaft and froze on to the shaft chances are the shaft is damaged.
cam shaft sensor controlled
cam shaft that allows the downward thrust of one Piston to cause another piston to move back up to be ready to be pushed down again. The Ignition is timed in a manner that allows the sequential firing of the spark plugs to cause The cam shaft to rotate smoothly. by Evan The cam shaft opens the valves as the piston comes up and down to let fuel in and let exhaust pass the crankshaft pushes the pistons up and down
Engine makes noise, performance drops, fuel mileage drops,
Either the gear on the end of the distributor shaft is chewed off or the gear that drives it is . Possibly broken cam.
no, the cam shaft is on the engine cylinder head..
The sensor on the CAM SHAFT!
this probably means you have a worn cam shaft or cam shaft or the arm that hits the cam shaft to open the valve is worn. this is internal on the engine.
Cam spins at half the speed of the engine.
cam chains are a chain the attach to the crankshaft and the cam shaft , the crankshaft is the shaft making the pistons go up and down the cam shaft makes the valves open and close, the crank shaft and cam shaft have to be aligned a certain way or the car will not fire, this is called "timing" . if your looking for where it is , its most likely in the front of the engine get a pro to look at it.

The cam shaft position sensor uses the "Hall Effect" to tell the ecu ( car's computer ) where the cam shaft is in it's rotation. This information is used by the ecu to fire off the coil ( or coils ) and the injectors at the correct time.
