It is on the passenger side of the engine block. It is accessible from under the truck, and
located about the 10 o'clock position behind the crankshaft front pulley.
The camshaft position sensor is located on the front passenger side of the timing cover above the crankshaft damper pulley. The sensor is held in by a 10 mm bolt mounted through a retainer. The retainer is part of the sensor and serviced with the new sensor. When replacing sensor, it is best to purchase from Ford dealer, or International dealer. Ask parts salesman to ensure sensor is updated unit as the old models are prone to failure. Make sure sensor is fully seated prior to bolt tightening to avoid possible oil leak.
The camshaft position sensor, on a Ford 6.0 liter power stroke engine, is located inside of the rear engine cover. The sensor is on the back of the camshaft.
If it is the same as the 2004 it is behind the power steering pump on the front driver's side of the enging. Lay under the truck with a flashlight and you will find it; it has a 10mm bolt head securing it to the block.
A two-stroke engine does not have a cam or camshaft. Seeing there is no intake/exhaust valves it would be pointless to have a camshaft.
where is the crank sensor located on a 6.0l ford power stroke diesel
The camshaft operated the inlet and outlet valves in the cylinder to admit fuel to the engine before ignition and expel the exhaust gas after the power stroke. The camshaft operates at half the crankshaft speed in a four-stroke engine.
This model Honda (99Accord EX w/4 cyl.) does not have a CMP (cam pos. sensor). It has a cyl. pos. sensor. (CYP) Both sensors tell the computer when #1 cyl. is @ top dead center on the comp. stroke. These sensors are specific to manufacturer and model. This sensor is located in the distributor.
Because the camshaft is located in the cylinder head, it is essential that the cam timing be aligned with the crankshaft timing. First, determine the crank position for Top Dead Center, which is when number one piston is at the top of its travel between the compression stroke and the combustion stroke. Be careful, because each piston will move through the top of its stroke twice, as this is a four cycle engine. There is a timing mark on the crankshaft pulley which must align with the timing indicator on the block. When #1 is at top of stroke, and the timing mark is at TDC, align the camshaft pulley timing mark(s) with the timing marks on the head. You should have a manual for this vehicle which describes this procedure, and identifies the timing marks on the head, or the position of the camshaft pulley in relation to the head to determine the TDC position of the cam. Once the crank and the camshaft are properly aligned, the timing belt must be carefully slipped over the camshaft pulley, and routed so that the belt tensioner can apply tension to the belt. Then, the tensioner must be set, which varies from engine to engine. Again, a repair manual has these procedures described and illustrated.
yes the 7.3 DI power stroke has a Crank sensor and a Cam sensor.
If this is a Power Stroke engine, the most likely cause is a faulty crankshaft position sensor.
cam sensor on a diesel??????????????????? yes cam sensor on a diesel. a diesel still has valves that are opened by a camshaft to allow air in and out of the combustion chambers, and it's necessary for injector timing to know what position the cam is in. 7.3L cam sensor is located at the front of the engine just above the harmonic balancer. (this sensor is often replaced if you have a p0344 or p0340 code.) very easy to change, you just need a 10mm socket preferably 1/4" drive and a long flat blade screwdriver. 6.0L cam sensor is located on the drivers (LH) side of the engine block near the front of the engine. The 6.0 cam sensor is behind the power steering pump. You need to remove the belt and the p.s. pump bolts and swing the pump away from the block. This will expose the cam sensor(which is about 5 inches long) and it's 10 mm bolt, after which you can pull the sensor from the block.
The cam sensor is located directly above and slightly to the left of the crankshaft pully on the timing cover if the engine is a 7.3 diesel. This is when you are facing the engine and the driver's side of the vehicle is to your right. The sensor is currently on a recall campaign from Ford & will be repalced free if you take it there. The sensor that was installed OEM has a black plastic body and a gold-tone metal tab. The replacement sensor is the same in appearance except that it has a silver metal tab. Also, if you hadn't already guessed; it's a real bi*ch to get at sometimes. Check with Ford & give them your VIN. You may not need to diddle with it yourself at all. Be aware that there is currently a backorder of these parts from Ford. If you have a 6.0l diesel it is behind the power steering pump
The Ford (International Truck and Engine) Powerstroke engine does NOT have a timing belt. It is a gear drive setup. The crank and camshaft gears are 2:1 reduction, so that the cam rotates one time for every two rotations of the crank. Timing is via a camshaft position sensor mounted in the block, that counts small windows in the camshaft gear via a hall effect magnetic pickup. This timing info is relayed to the PCM which then instructs the IDM when to fire each injector.
