Dear S-Heads,
Problem solved, yeah! The problem ended up being a
corroded plug attached to the cam position sensor.
That's it! Ruled out ECU, wgfv, bpv. It was throwing
codes for Cam position sensor, hmmm, checked cam
sprocket w/woodruff key, position ok. Checked plug and
whoa! Corroded mess, cleaned up, everything okey
dokey.
Thanks again for all the possible issues, it sure
saved time.
