CEL
I had my car scanned yesterday because the CEL was on. The guy told me is was two secondary CELs one was for the cam timing being retarded to much and one for the cam timing being advanced to much. Has anyone ever had this problem? If so how did you fix it? You can see my mods in my signature.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I'm not sure of the CEL numbers. If it does it again I'll be sure to get the numbers. Where can I find out about the t.s.b.?

I think the is the TSB you are talking about.
Ive copied and pasted the basic info from AllData.
The rest of this bulletin shows you how to check to see if the cam is lined up correctly (something the dealership should do for free as long as your under 60k)
Hope this helps you.
