I was wondering what kind of things does a car do if the cam sensor is going out? My car is stalling, but it only stalls when its ran for a while, my carlot put it on the tester, but they didn't get it on there in time before the car stalled, the code it pulled was for the cam sensor, and I was wondering if tha code it pulled would be right without the car being running with the engine light on?

Hi there,

A cam sensor fault can cause stalling lack of power, and general tune related issues, the diagnostic tests are very accurate, I would be replacing the cam sensor.
