Canada 99 Camry cam sensor problem!

Hi guys and greatings from Toronto, Canada. I got a 1999 Toyota Camry V6 with a P0340 and P0330 and would like some help. The knock sensor one only came after I switched(REVEARSED) the wires on the sensor. The sensor seems to be fine, I checked the resistance appears to be in spec. The wires have continuity. I reset the codes but it comes back after the relearn period. The car does seem to have a long crank time.

DOES IT HAVE TWO CAM SENSORS?

IS 300-350KM ON A FULL TANK BAD MILEAGE?

IS THIS CAR SFI OR MUTIPORT INJECTION?

HOW COME IT STILL PASSES THE DRIVE CLEAN TEST?

CAN I CLEAN THE SENSOR?

I DON'T HAVE A SCOPE, SHOULD I PAY SOMEONE TO FIX IT?

SFI = Sequential Fuel Injection.

Multiport injection = 1 injector per cylinder.

The engine has both systems.

P0340 is camshaft sensor, there is only one sensor. 835-1400 ohm cold, 1060-1645 ohm hot

Inspect sensor, wiring and the pulley tooth. The sensor triggers off one tooth on the pulley.

P0330 is the knock sensor on Bank 2, there are 2 knock sensors. Bank 2 is the cylinder head closest to the radiator.

You can try swapping knock sensors and determine if the code changes to P0325, if so the sensor is bad. If same code perhaps an issue with the wiring.

Dumbass Toyota Tech told me it has two cam sensors!! I am sure that MPFI is different then SFI. MPFI fires the injectors in banks, and the SFI fires right before the intake valve opens. I wanted to know if the cam sensor would be causing a long crank time and the car to turn off sometimes.
