Hello all,

Sorry for the lack of power content.

I did a timing belt change on my 2002.  No leaks, no slipped teeth (Ninja tool 
FTW), no problems...I thought.

A couple of days later, the engine had a severe stumble under no special 
conditions.  Ran fine for the rest of the trip (~5 miles).  Next trip, minor 
stumble.  Clutch in, observed uneven idle on tach while coasting at speed.  
Next trip, severe stumble again and CEL.

Pulled the code and it's P0340, Cam Position Sensor.  From research, I know 
these go bad.  Before spending $90 on a replacement, is there something else I 
should check?  It's certainly curious that it "failed" just after I had the cam 
cover off and the CPS connector unplugged/replugged.  Is it possible that the 
cam cover is reinstalled slightly "off" so that the positioning of the CPS is 
marginal with respect to the cam?  Something else?

Thanks for your help,

Curtis
