I have this kit here and want to install it but don't want to create more work for me to do in the process. I did a search and read some threads and this one guy had some bad luck when he tried to remove the phillips head screw that holds everything in place,here is the comment he posted in the thread about it.
Yeah, took a few steps forward - then tonight I thought Id be a bright guy and do some preventive maintenance on the cam sensor - install RJC's "cam sensor repair kit " Well, as I was trying to remove the small phillips screw that holds the washer with the tang in place - the screw snapped off. I just walked out of the garage..Any suggestions there - don't hesitate to pass them along..Larry
My question is how common is it for this phillips head screw to snap off when trying to remove it, to install the kit? My cam sensor is new made by Standard Motors with less than 100 miles on it,if that helps with the answer. I'm just trying to make the cam sensor stronger so the tab doesn't break off. To avoid being brokedown on the road and having to fix it there or being hauled back to the house then fixing it.
Thanks in advance for any help.
