2G Cam angle sensor chewed up

[Captnsteve]

Had an oil leak, that i think came from turbo lines while driving, pulled it over, towed it home, replaced entire turbo and added cold air, now cylinders 2&3 are dead, isolated to what I thought was bad coil pack, replaced...still dead, traced it back to ignition control, replaced...still dead, backed up to CAS, end of sensor is chewed off... my question is how did that happen and what should I be checking? Not sure what the i side of the sensor is supposed to look like but clearly something is off to chew up the sensor?

When you took it apart was either the sensor or the trigger wheel loose? had to be one or the other.

I’m not sure that the sensor being loose could lead to this. It shouldn’t extend far enough into the housing to contact the trigger wheel when fully secured. So being loose, the only way it can go is away from the trigger wheel.

I’d be concerned with the trigger wheel in the shape that it’s in. Seems almost like something fell into the housing and was drug around the housing, shaving the sensor.

Or maybe the wrong sensor and it was a too long to begin with?
