cam sensor?

can anyone tell me if the cam sensor goes out what the car will do? The car starts but will not stay running unless I'am in the throttle alittle bit and then it lopes between 2 thousand and 1 thousand RPM.
 
An air leak will do the same thing, so check the spanner nut area and the IC tubes for a leak with propane or intake cleaner before you go buying parts. Good luck
 
Your brief description is that of a vacuum leak somewhere. IC tubes and any other vacuum lines are prime culprits for that. A failing cam sensor typically will cause a rough idle, but it will be accompanied with no tach reading. The car will still run, just not good at all.
