P1345 and P0161
99 5.7L
check engine light showed
p1345
p0161
p1345 {do not know why it read twice}
maybe since the intake gasket and distributor gear was recently replaced, the cam is advanced or retarded
should i use a scanner to see the readings, and while the idle is above 1,000 try to move the distributor gear until the correct reading shows up?
also which oxygen sensor is p0161?

The cam retard needs to be set with a scanner to 0+/-2 degrees the auto xray 6000 reads cam retard i scored one on eBay for a $100,p0161 is bank 2 sensor 2
When the your reading cam retard you have to rev the engine up over a 1000 rpm to get the updated reading you wont know if its advanced or retarded untill you hook the scanner up to it

yea, waiting to find a good deal on the 6000.. best deal yesterday was ~270, man you got lucky. what else does the 6000 do if you do not mind me asking?
and bank 2 sensor 2 that would be the one closest to the exhaust exit on the passenger side right?
