I have a 96 850R engine. what is the difference in the cam sensor from a 96 to a 98 S series. They look different fr the outside but could my 96 sensor fit and work on a 98

Same if both engines are turbo. both have part number 9146108 and cost the same at FCP.

Did you do your Random Act of Kindness today?

This is an old post so I hope it's OK to jump in a bit Off topic.

Klaus, do you know if a '92 900 series car has a separate Cam and Crank sensor? I believe the 800 series has a problematic Cam sensor that can be fixed with $13 part from radio shack and I wonder if this part is found on the 900 engines. I'm a 200 guuy and I believe there are some changes to the B230

Sorry Tony, I cannot help in this regard. The only Hall sensor I ever messed with is on a 1975 164. And I didn't know what I was doing back then, probably still don't.

The only way to figure out a cam sensor in the 200/900 is to take one apart and take a look.

Oops.. you misunderstood.. I wasn't asking about teh inner workings of the sensor itself. I was just asking if the 900 has two separate sensors? A crank sensor AND a Cam sensor.

I was thinking that SMFREE(I know youv'e been helping her too)and her 900 might have the no start issue because it has a second Cam sensor not just the one Crank positioning Sensor.
