no tach after cam install? help please? Yes, i'm a newbie. but i still need help.
some friends and i installed a 224 cam last night and got it all back together and started it up. got oil pressure but the tach doesnt work now and it idles WAY high. Did they forget to plug something in?
any suggestions?
TIA

Re: no tach after cam install? help please? they might have. i didnt do much but be a tool gofer. it threw the P0342 cam sensor code. would that mean it wasnt plugged back in. Good help is so hard to find these days...

Re: no tach after cam install? help please? Hrm, it seems very unlikely that sensor would become unplugged during a cam swap. Did they have your intake manifold off too? Maybe the cam was ground wrong or something and the part that the cam position sensor reads is all wrong?
