Has intermittent no start. When scanned, cam signal was not present when condition occured. Replaced cam sensor after testing harness, including voltages at cam sensor connector when condition was occuring. Replaced cam sensor, I get more successful starts, but condition is still intermittently present. Could this be a magnet issue on the cam itself? Have you any experiences like this?
