Tony58 Posted August 13, 2020 Report Share Posted August 13, 2020 engine ran rough then died. Got a code for the fuse box under hood. Changed it and then found can sensor melted. Car never run hot. Then the car started and drove for 3 miles then same exact then happened. Under calve cover was melted and can sensor melted again. Cam shaft has discoloration from heat. Engine never ran hot according to the temp gauge. Can’t figure this one out. Any help would be appreciated. John/Horace 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John/Horace Posted August 14, 2020 Report Share Posted August 14, 2020 Kinda confusing. Melted cam sensors may not be from heat, a short which took out fuse under hood could be source of problem. Fuses are designed to protect wiring from shorts, don’t move to a larger fuse without figuring out what is blowing fuses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony58 Posted August 14, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2020 So there was definitely heat cause the cam shaft is discolored and the bottom of the valve cover had melted parts as well. jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
