Re: loss of power 98 caravan 6cyl 3.8l

I paid around $110.00 in Autozone for both sensors save on labor cause I did it myself crankcase sensor is located belowe air filter box and must be removed used a 10 mm socket. camshaft sensor located on pasanger on the upper side. use a 10 mm rench.

it could be because mine if a get enough speed so i can let it off the gas pedal. cleaning the throttle might help too.

my lack of speed came along withan engine light code p0420 a belived cam and crankshaft signal lost.
