if so then yah, it's electrical. Thats one of the things i had to rewire a few months ago...

Yeah, thought so. Your throttle has a position sensor which is read by the computer and delivers a signal for appropriate throttle opening regardless of position. Some systems use this for traction control (throttle cut out). Mine doesn't have it it's mechanical. Pedal down means throttle open. enkei's uses a piece of bailing wire taped to a ball of rubber bands I think.

Problem is getting a misfire code for c#4, and a camshaft position sensor code.

Wonder if you simply have a bad camshaft sensor. Also, is there a learn sequence to reset it? I know on the LSx motors, there is a learn sequence at least for the crank position sensor.

Explain this to me.

Thank you in advance. PS. Enkei runs a flimsy Spectre mount that he bought from Autozone and modified it to be stronger than yours.



Boostn, sure you're not thinking of the throttle position sensor? Also, milkshake under the cap. No bueno. Could be condensation. But mayyybe not, what does the dipstick oil look like?

I stand corrected. That's pretty clearly a mechanical throttle linkage.

Prove it.

That would be no bueno if it was also, oil isn't doing it's job.

Drilled through it and bolted it to the intake manifold to keep it from moving back, which is the problem with all aftermarket Holley carb throttle cable brackets. Solid as a rock. Actually, solid as a 5/16 bolt.

True, oil should be getting hot enough to evaporate all of the water. How long had the car been sitting? Let it get to operating temp, check it again. Also look in the radiator for oil.

It could be the throttle position sensor, but the code I'm getting is for the camshaft position sensor. After warming up the car and checking the oil cap and dipstick again all appeared to be fine, couldn't see anything weird in my block other than maybe needing a good cleaning lol. Seafoam perhaps...

Gonna buy a camshaft position sensor and see if that solves the problem. If not then back to trouble shooting.

I meant the thing that you replaced before, that led you to believe your throttle was electronically actuated.

Yes, change your cam sensor.

I did some checking on the code p0340 and most common repair is the cam sensor. I also found a TSB ( TSB 18-024-04 ) for missfires. Dodge says replace the plug wire and plug and have a ECM re-calibration. Printed it but have no way to copy and paste it. Our program at the shop won't allow it. I will be doing some work at my friends shop in MV tonight , if you want to grab it on your way home.

ok, yeah ordering that particular part today.
