Also, I've read pretty much all the threads I can find about this kind of error code, and I've swapped OCVs, checked sensor clearance, and pulled the timing cover to check for the loose spring in the back or to see if the cam vvt lock pin was broken (i.e. loose cam). Best I can tell is that the previous owner had this problem and fixed it with the OCV, as one is obviously new compared to the other 3. Also, the vehicle runs fine until limp mode.

Also, will deleting the code prevent it from entering limp mode due to this issue?
It looks like, in that screenshot, that it's already in limp mode. Here I highlighted the commanded angles in red and the measured angles in blue. They're zeroed out because either:
  1. it's in limp mode.
  2. The engine is in fuel cut mode because it's coasting or spooling down




Clearing the code will clear limp mode but if the underlying cause still exists, it will throw it again. I don't know how long that takes.
