Pardon my ignorance. What is CAS?


Recommended Posts

I've posted before. Have an 83 2WD ea81 that now won't run at all. Some suggestions are to check.replace CAS. But me being somewhat a dummy I don't know what a CAS is.

Still looking for disty.

Also, ongoing problem. Looking for parts either thru dealership or autozone-like places, parts are NOT found under the year and model I give them, i.e. 83 DL 1800 Sta Wag 2WD. Any suggestions. Thanks!!

 

Getting the ark ready. Rain in New England for next 7-10 days.

CAS: Crank Angle Sensor. It is part of the electronic distributor that tells the control module what the engine speed is and when to fire the coil... but I wouldn't have thought that you would have one on an 83. Maybe it is just simpler, lesser functioned than the later models.
