my friend got detonation and blew up his engine when his cam sensor went out.

When mine came unhooked, I got safe mode and it took me about 20 seconds to hit 35 until I got it fixed .

its a no start condition if your cam sensor is not working. and no you wont get detnation w/ a bad cam sensor.

i might have been thinking the cylinder position sensor thing. I was talking about whatever one sits on the left of that exhaust cam.
