I am trying to find where the cam sensor is located on my 1996 F350 4wd,7.3 PowerStroke?

Front of engine on the RH side approx.10oclock position. It's a black,blue or grey plastic deal (depends on when it was changed) with a metal clip to secure it and the elec. plug . It sort of fits in the block like a plumbing fitting but be certain to lube the O-ring when you replace it.

this is the wrong forum but ... the cam sensor is part of the timing mark on the front cover 10 mm socket and short extension will get to it. may have to spray some wd 40 on it and wiggle as it comes out. be sure to replace the oring on the re install and some wd or motor oil.

Well since you all answered the question so well, I guess I will just leave this one here.
