 I have had two camshaft position sensor failures on my 97' f350 7.3l diesel in a matter of one year. this left me stranded on both occasions. i discovered on several ford truck discussion forums that this is one the most common failures on these trucks through a variety of years. i could not find any person who owned a similar year truck and did not have this component fail on them. please take action on this issue. *jb
