Engine dies

[irishinontario]

I am having serious problems and hope I get the solution here

My truck shakes all over
Dies when I am about to park
Dies at the drive through
A knocking noise from underneath

Over the past week I have had the following codes:
0345
0344
0340
00012

I changed both camshsft timing sensors and no change

Last week, a well meaning neighbour with fast fingers cleared a P2196 code

Would changing the O2 sensor at the front passenger side resolve this?

Thanks

All codes except the p2196 are cam timing, changing the O2 sensor is a waste for this issue. The timing issue is causing the the code to set & I would focus on the p0012 code first.

Agree with stamp 11127 all of your codes can cause the P2196 code to appear so changing the O2 sensor may still produce the P2196 code.
It would be best to resolve the other codes first

P0012 - Intake Camshaft Position Timing - Over-Retarded (Bank 1)
Description: The powertrain control module (PCM) monitors the variable camshaft timing (VCT) position for over-retarded camshaft timing. The test fails when the camshaft timing exceeds a maximum calibrated value or remains in a retarded position.

Possible Causes: Camshaft timing improperly set
Continuous oil flow to the VCT piston chamber
VCT solenoid valve stuck open
Camshaft advance mechanism binding (VCT unit)

Diagnostic Aids: This DTC is a functional check of the VCT unit. Diagnose any base engine concerns related to the engine oil pressure or engine timing. Refer to the Workshop Manual Section 303-00, Engine System.

Check for vacuum keaks and check the wiring from the PCM to the cam sensors for continuity.
