I have had this 96 Eclipse GST Spyder for awhile now and I am having some issues with it. I did a head gasket job on it over this last winter and got it together running great. I put a new water pump and all new timing components as well. Additionally I put in new cam position sensor and crank angle sensor both brand new from expsi. Now I had an issue where it wasn't wanting to stay running on startup and would just die a few seconds after running. Usually would only happen after I had been driving it. I can clear the code and it comes back with the p0340. I have tried testing the cam position sensor with a volt meter. When the sensor is unplugged and the key on I am only getting 3.72v on the signal wire. I believe it is supposed to be 5v? I tested the wire from the sensor plug to the ecu and it is fine. It seems like this issue is only happening when the car is warm. If i just let it sit it will start up and run no issues. I have also had this issue happen once when driving down the road the car would just shut off and do the same thing not wanting to start issue.
So I tore the timing side of the motor apart and put in a 2nd BRAND NEW cam position sensor from expsi and it is doing the EXACT same thing.
I did try a spare ecu I had lying around and it was doing the same thing.
Only mods are valve springs and head studs. Stock turbo stock injectors etc.
Any help is greatly appreciated
