While assembling a cam gear back on, is it ok to rotate it?
May 15, 2008 by s0ul_exp0sed | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs
I have both cam gears out. I have tons of assembly lube all over the shafts and cam gear holders. I am having trouble getting both cam gears to TDC. Is it ok to rotate the cam gears individually(counter clockwise direction) to get them back to tdc?
It should be OK but have you tried loosening the valves to release tension on the lobes?
