Fellow Members;

Well really do not knkow where to start and I was hoping someone could mabe anwser a question/concern I have. This list below will go through what has happend thus far.

1. Bad knocking sound- (alarm in my mind and knew stuff was about to hit the fan)

2. Finally pulled the driver side valve cover and noticed several things. The cam positon sensor was GONE- and the cam gear was loose.

3. Reason for the Cam Positon Sensor being GONE- the cam gear on the driver side was somehow striped off the cam (pressed on type) and it slid forward knocking the cam sensor off. (still knocking by the way!!)

4. QUESTION- do you think this bent the valves? If not then why?

5. Anyone herd of this before?

ANY help is appreciated (sorry for any mis spelling above)
