Didn't know there was one on a 2.0L GLS.  :-/

Do a Paperclip test IAW the following link and see what codes you get.

Works on all 2.0L/2.5L/3.0L as far as I'm aware.

It's the 2.2L/2.6L/3.2L that it won't as I understand it.

The 2000 2.0L should be a Simtec system with 4 digit codes.
So do it with ignition on and engine NOT running.

Its realy easy, pop the cam cover off and spark plug cover.

Remove the bolt in between the two cam pulleys that holds the sensor in place and remove the sensor.
