Sorry but did you read what devil said?
His we're lned up 16 and when he rotated it dropped to 15 this will throw your cams off but the engine will still run. There's only a few issues with this code 1 beig the sensor and 1 being the cam position actually being off. You took care o one with a new sensor so your cams may be off. I know you checked and didn't move anything and were careful and everything. Check again.

..... Not being a **** it just helps us trying to solve a problem we can't touch

 

Ok so I did what I am the devil said and popped off my valve cover and I still count 16 links. From the first one that isn't completely on the cam to the last one that isn't completely on the cam
And I'm sorry for sounding like an ***, I truly am grateful but this car has given me nothing but problems since I bought it, thanks again though

 

I just removed the sensor to check it and now that one is broken too! This one looks torn up too, I took a few pictures, the first one is of the sensor itself, the second is parts that few out when removing the sensor (the thing on the far right is magnetic and was sticking to the sensor)

 

Correction the magnetic piece was on the circular thing that the sensor covers

 

Any ideas on my engines hunger for cam shaft sensors?

 

Anybody?
