Where is the cam sensor on a 2001 olds bravada 4.3 V6?

The camshaft position sensor (CMP sensor) on a 2001 Oldsmobile Bravada 4.3L V6 is located on the passenger side (right side) of the engine, near the front of the engine block. It's typically mounted on the cylinder head, fairly close to the distributor (if it has one; some 4.3Ls did away with the distributor).

However, the *exact* location can vary slightly depending on the specific engine configuration. It's best to consult a repair manual specific to your 2001 Oldsmobile Bravada 4.3L V6. A Haynes or Chilton manual will have diagrams and detailed descriptions of the location. You can also find diagrams online through automotive parts websites (like AutoZone or Advance Auto Parts) by entering your vehicle's details.

Be cautious when working near this sensor, as it's in a somewhat cramped area of the engine bay.
