I have a 1987 nissan pulsar with the ca16de dual overhead engine and the cam angle sensor is messed up. what cars came with the engine? the car is a jelopy for now so I'm fishing for a junkyard part just to be sure it's that and not the computer. Any help is welcome! Thanks to everyone for reading, as you can probly tell I'm a noob.

Pretty sure the cam angle sensor is the same as the CA18DE. You can get a new one at Auto Zone, but it will be somewhat expensive. Any 87-89 Pulsar ought to have the part you need. You might also want to check the classifieds on here, as there were several CA18 part-outs last I checked.

Also, Welcome! Glad to have you on board the NICO bandwagon!
