Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
hi i have a vauxhall vectra 1.8 auto estate
it is petrol
it has very poor starting most of the time but sometimes it will start first time without any problems.
i have replaced the maf and the crank sensor
it has also had the head gasket done and new water pump and cam belt the main water pipe replaced.
i have had it diagnostic and it came up with cam sensor which i have not changed yet.
if i changed it will that cure the problem or could it be down to something else like the tdc sensor.
can anyone help thanks ron.

Cam sensor can cause problems . Sometimes it's only the wiring at sensor that's faulty .
