1993 400e pulled code 8 camshaft

Finally got around to replacing the fan clutch and radiator on my 400e. The car sat for 4 years!!!

When replacing the fan clutch, I might point out that the bolt that holds the clutch to the pulley needed to be shortened by about 10mm

Anyway,,, now the car is giving me a code 8 which indicates camshaft open/short.

I measured on the EXL plug "B" from pins 1 to 5 approx. 1.1K Ohms
so there is no short or open.

Been trying to decipher WIS and for that code is says test step [] 23 =>14 but I cannot located test step 23.

So either if someone knows where to locate test step 23, or has any suggestions please advise.

The car runs great until it warms up then rough idle and hesitation, and miss, cough etc.

This problem did not occur before the fan clutch went out (or at the very least, my wife didn't tell me the car was running crappy)
