97 Chevrolet Astro van 2wd. When I start it, it acts like the battery is almost dead- lugging, sluggish, missing kinda sound and feel.
But the battery cranks pretty long until it starts. I replaced the timing chain. Do I need cam and crank position sensors, or cap & rotor?
I had a buddy check a constant-on 'check engine' light with OBD2 meter. A Diagnostic Trouble Code of p1345 showed up. Are the position sensors easy to change?

Yes, mechanic checked too. Dots aligned vertically with shaft.
Thanks carhob!
Thanks carhob, I replaced the cam sensor and that wasn't it. It was the distributor out quite a bit. That cleared the engine trouble light and starts clean now.
Sidenote, I had a DTC trouble code when I checked it without the air filter in. MAF air sensor was ok but p0102 code threw me.
are you sure when you installed your timing chain marks on gears were well aligned?
