CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR 1.Remove distributor from engine. (Camshaft position sensor harness connector should remain connected.) 2.Disconnect ignition wires. 3.Turn ignition switch "ON". 4.Rotate distributor shaft slowly by hand and check voltage between terminals "c", "d" and ground.

If NG, replace distributor assembly with camshaft position sensor.

5.Visually check signal plate for damage or dust. Crankshaft position sensor location

Try to get the emission test w/o the CPS and make sure the CEL comes on and goes off when it suppose to and see what happens.
