Tell me what this is....

I just need to know the name of this. I know it has to do with timing. Its leaking oil out of the inside of the cover. It should be in the trsm right?Thanks

Cam Position Sensor. Easy fix, its just 1 o-ring.

That is the cam position sensor...If oil is leaking inside of the plastic cover, that means that the internal seal is leaking...and needs to be replaced (NOT easy)...I would find a used CPS in good shape.

Damn that was quick!! 1 min. Thanks for the help.

OK so I have 1 easy fix and 1 replacement. Anyone else??

 

[Piratetip]

Yeah if its leaking inside the cover johnathan1 is right.

Here's my post to fix the internal seal. Personally, I would not buy a used one, as they are all way too old now to have good seals. The CPS sits in a very hot location and the internal seal slowly bakes itself to death. If you've seen the condition of the external o-ring after 10 years, then imagine what shape the internal rubber seal is in after 20 years!
