@Gudog it is my understanding that the 24valve does not have a synchronizer
only a cam shaft sensor which is shown here. There is also a crankshaft
sensor located behind the right front wheel.
Hi Matt. Thanks for the video. I have a chirping under the hood and
replaceing the belt did nothing. Everybody next says the camshaft
sychronizer. There are several good videos out there for the sensor and
suchronizer replacement but they are all on the 12 valve. I have the 24
valve dohc. Now that you have shown me where the camshaft sensor is…I
would have to assume the sychronizer is behind it? I ask this because
somebody out there says the 24 valvel has no sychronizer! Can you help?
My wife’s 00 Sable has been running rough for over a year. I replace
sensors here and there with little to no improvement. TPS, MAF, Idle Air
Control Valve. I’ve done a tune-up. Fixed vacuum leaks. Still nothing.
Latest code reader from Autozone says P0302, aka misfire on cylinder 2. I’m
tired of replacing parts. It’s all a gamble on what I replace. A diesel
mechanic where I work said the crank sensor may be bad but also mentioned
the cam sensor. They’re both under $20 each.
It could have been, I replaced so many little things. The part is so cheap
it wouldn’t hurt. My main issue was the coil, it worked great when it was
warm but would not start/ or just misfire. I did a ton under the hood feel
free to ask if you have more questions.

In other words, if there is no sychronizer…then I am barking up the wrong
tree! I have a 2000 Mercury Sable 14 valve DOHC

Was this causing your car to misfire by any chance?
