I replaced the camshaft position sensor A bank 2 and the problem continues. The engine starts to idle very low and has cut out on me twice sense replacement of sensor. Battery and alternator is good. Not sure where to go from here

Ok so the final answer to this was that the plastic timing chain guide on the VTC was broken, on top of the phasers being broken as well. So they did a complete timing job replacing both phasers and VTC’s. The total damage was $2,200. The truck is back running like a champ! Thank you for all your support.

@fordlariat. Awesome and great that you got it on the road again. Not cheap but its going to pay you back quick.
@oldturkey03 your absolutely right on that. Now hopefully I have a while before any other major problems so that I can recoup lol.

Update: I took the truck to the base and hooked it up to a computer and they say it is my timing system ie: chain, phasers, guide rods and all.

@fordlariat dang that is way off from the camshaft position sensor. Sorry to hear this and looks like you got quite a bit of work ahead of yourself.
You’re not lying! It’s a bit of work for sure and not sure what tangled web of things that my also need to be repaired at this point. So as much as it pains me to say it, I feel I would rather a professional repair it. My wallet will not like me for it but I think it may be beyond my scope of abilities. I will update with more information as it develops.

Some replies in vehicle forums can be misleading from anyone insisting their comments are correct above all others. Ever notice they're from owners and not experts in specific makes/models/years? Even trained dealer techs make mistakes. EFI systems can be either complicated or relatively easy depending on one's knowledge and experiences.
There's a great example of a repair shop on youtube finding and fixing a $1200 dealer repair that failed. Dealer threw parts at the repair and failed. This repair shop was referred to, systematically diagnosed then found..........a severely corroded engine ground falling apart that created mystery problems the dealer failed to diagnose. After replacing the ground cable, all problems disappeared, vehicle owner shared this repair and the dealer refunded costs, possibly from embarassment of the youtube exposing incompetence.

@notbroken absolutely. That is why any forum or any advice, always warrant a healthy does of caution. However, it is always good to consider work that others have done and maybe there is some validity on what was suggested.
