Cam Sensor Adjustment?

[Buick Beginner]

Well, you're not going to believe this but I accidentely threw my cam sensor adjustment tool, (a $30 value), into the dumpster by accident. (Don't ask, it's a long story). Is there a place with instructions for installing your cam sensor properly. I went to the GNTTYPE website but I couldn't find anything, anyone? - BB

Thanks Jim

The only thing I don't get is the masking tape thing. Can you offer a kindergarten version of the masking tape step?

Those instructions are easy to use. Be sure your probes into the connector are good. I did a continuity check before I went to voltage...

The masking tape goes on the timing mark to set the sensor at the correct timing(turn the crank so that it lines up with the tape mark). If you set it to TDC #1 it will be incorrect, I learned the hard way.
