Where is the CAMSHAFT sensor located?

[gommee]

Can any one describe it's location or have a diagram? 99 Intrigue 3.8 litre engine

I get a stutter upon acceleration and have replaced most of the throttle body sensors. I get an engine missfire code. Nothing specific. I have replaced the ignition switch for other reasons. I have read other posts that say try the Crankshaft sensor, but their SES light comes back on and it does not fix the issue. The camshaft sensor is the easier of the two to replace.

I have a 2000 Intrigue and the cam shaft sensor is above the starter. You need to remove the starter to have easy access to it. Was a pretty easy job to change.

The Crank Shaft sensor is above the starter on the front side of engine. The Cam Shaft Sensor is what I am looking for.
PLEASE HELP.
