Re: WANTED: Cam position sensor for LT5
 

Hello.

Looking for a camshaft position sensor for my 1991 ZR-1 # 10096172

Is there an alternative for the sensor that is no longer available ?

or can the old defective one be repaired

Sorry to revive an old thread but Phil do you possibly have anymore Cam sensors?

I just made an odd discovery. While looking for something in my Z stash I found my original OEM CAMSHAFT SENSOR. There is a guy on Facebook that had an oil leak in this area. In this post on Facebook somebody mentioned they had the same leak and replaced it with the identical sensor that cost $38.00 shipped to my door. Other than 1727 printed under the main part number of 55505-00-02-A
When I replaced mine a few years ago I could only find an AIRTEX replacement and it was $200. GM hasn't had these for a few years now. Is it possible I may have found the deal of the century? Mouser has this for $28.00 with free shipping. I couldn't get the the order straight so I bought one for $38.00 shipped. A revision is in order,this part isn't an exact drop in replacement. I was going to look into this but got side tracked and never got back to it.

I just received a new cam position sensor from Phil. I got the old one out but WTH do you cram the new one in? It is not even close to squeezing in the hole. Is there a trick on getting it to slide in the hole? I have oil on the o ring, the hole is clean and smooth, and I have not even got it to start to go in by pushing it very hard. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Try removing the o-ring. If it still doesn't go in all the way I'll send you another one. If it goes in put the o-ring back on and try it again twisting while pushing.
