I got another AU motor today to replace my busted one and it doesnt have anything where the synchroniser / cam angle sensor or oil pump drive would go so I need to put the one from my old engine into it.

My workshop manual doesnt say anything about it and Ive found 2 threads on here which say its either just an oil pump drive or a cam angle sensor / synchronizer. I thought the cam angle sensor was in the timing cover but Ive been wrong before.

What is it and how do I know its in properly when putting it into the new motor?

Can I just pry it out of the old motor or will it break? I couldnt easily pull it out.

Thanks,
Dan

Its just an oil pump drive, cam sensor is on the timing cover.

Just have to turn the motor over a bit to pull it out.

Thanks mate.

I'll give it a go tonight.
