1987 Jeep Wrangler XJ - The Invisible Gremlins
Camshaft Position Sensor (CPS)
Technically, this one could also be called the CPS, but in the normal usage of things, it is ignored and the CPS is the crank sensor, while this is the red-headed stepchild of the group. Located inside the distributor of early injected engines, it provides the computer with input of the valves' location and typically runs like a top. However, loose connections or sometimes older units have been known to keel over, resulting in intermittent Jeep operation. For those of you who need it spelled out: failure of this sensor will often result in intermittent stalling and dying of the Jeep. View Related Article
