Showing up after recent timing belt and valve cover gasket job. Car starts and runs, runs better at higher rpm's, but rough idle and seems to load up after a bit. My question is, With both cam sensors codes coming up, could this be associated with the timing belt and being it runs, possibly be a single tooth off on the crank timing sprocket? Thanks for any and all replies as they are so very much appreciated!
