I am not trying to throw anything way above anyone heads here. This cam sensor has become a big problem in the last 3 or 5 years. I found this out the year the sensor was NLA and the cam gear reluctor was way different so I knew something was up trying to fix a 496 that the newer cam sensor was installed and the engine ran even worse.

Anyways not dogging LOTO but I am amazed how many boat shops are in the area that have no or never taken any OEM factory training and are loaded with current OEM marine engines to repair. I am not saying all the shops in your area have no OEm insight or training but there is a fair share of them.

Anyways I am pretty darn sure I can fix your boat and possible up here or over the phone not even putting a hand on it. Your serial number falls under the NLA cam sensor and you need the proper one to make it run correctly. Just saying.

I would be willing to let you try one of my cam sensors if it works I will have to charge you for it. If it does not work I will want back. I put up some upfront money to have these done. Someday as a hope to be the easy fix for many 496's and I am the go to person for this.

Way under 200 bucks and we will need to use a current connector as well they are around 20 bucks. we need to splice that per OEM recommendations. Not hard at all just wondering about access for your app. I was thinking about coming to LOTO for the shootout anyways. I will contact you today or tonite if that's OK. I am OEM Cert just incase you are wondering about how I know this stuff and or where I coming from with the info. I have worked on my fair share of 496's In my day.

Text days ago and nothing back from you so what has come forth with this ? Like I said I had 10 CAM sensor made but have not had an app around my area to even test them. Looking to move forward with my CAM sensors for the early 496 apps. Wish I could find a 2500 496 early truck app and a RV to see how well or not these work in those apps to. Just saying

I'd be interested in talking about this cam sensor.
