    I read the how-to. Is this that hard to do on your own? I would have to go buy a puller......

    The how-to should make it look pretty easy. You can have it done in an evening with time to spare. No need to buy the puller, just rent one for free from the local parts store.

    Yeah, I red it once again and looks like a no brainer. Puller is only 20$ so don't mind picking it up. Just have to order\find the special bolts for the puller.

    Also looks like the part is 30$ on eBay as well. My inlaws have a repair shop in FL (IL here) and told me the Napa part cost for them is 40.xx

    You can get the bolts from Lowes or any hardware store; I think they are M6. I would get the part off of rockauto.com before buying it off of eBay, but I prefer to get stuff like that locally for warranty purposes. I would replace the cam sensor while in there just to be safe...no sense in going back in there if it goes bad later down the road.

    I might replace that one as well. It would be a good idea.....


    EDIT:

    I looked on Rock auto, and the image just did not look right.....maybe wrong search?

    Yea, you have to look at the part where it says "connector" and realize that they are selling you a "connector" not a sensor. Look under the ignition category; both the cam and crank sensor are there. Do a quick Google for a 5% discount code, too.
