Review on Enhanced Beck Arnley 180-0490 Cam Angle Sensor for Improved Performance by Drew Diaz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Repairs a poorly made Nissan OEM part.

This fixes a hard/long start and also prevents my xterra from stopping randomly. I warn you, this is very difficult to achieve. Use the blanket, just lay on top of the engine and use both hands to pull this bastard out from behind the engine. I used the article and photos from xterraclub and it took about 30 minutes per page. Given all the reports of stalled cars, GM, Ford, VW in recent months. This probably should have been a review but wasn't (it could have a TSB on it but not a review). I don't think a stalled engine or a stuck accelerator is actually a safety issue, but that's a topic for another discussion. I've had these problems since my 1974 Datsun. At the time you expected something to break, you just pulled the clutch, the engine roared or died depending on the fault, and you held on with your handbrakes and manual steering and were towed away. Nor have you gone out in front of something so big and fast that you will, even if your engine stalls.

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • Secret
