Over the last 3 months, I've had an issue where, at least once every 2 weeks, the engine has trouble firing, then when it does turn over, I smell gas for a few seconds.
Then, tonight, the "Service Engine Soon" light came on. P0014 was the code when the AutoZone tech used his handheld reader.
P0014:
The ECM has detected the camshaft phase angle has exceeded its tolerance value.
Probable Causes:
Could these two issues be related?
I checked the forums, and saw this useful thread. Not sure I have the correct tools to clean the camshaft position actuator solenoid, tho.
I don't really have trouble idling, but on a trip to Mt. Mitchell, NC, the engine did conk out a couple of times about 5000+' in altitude when we stopped to admire the view. It didn't occur on a trip over the 4th of July weekend to Clingman's Dome (about 5600' up) however.
Any additional advice I would appreciate. Specs in the sig.

P0014:
The ECM has detected the camshaft phase angle has exceeded its tolerance value.
Probable Causes:
- Loose can or crank sensor
- Excessive timing chain free play
- Blocked oil passage in the camshaft actuator or engine
- Incorrect oil quality or viscosity
