Clean the camshaft journal with non-residue solvent.
Cover the 4 oil paths of the cam journal with vinyl tape as shown in the illustration.
Tech Tips
There are 4 oil paths in the grooves of the camshaft. Plug three of the paths with pieces of rubber.
Open a hole at port A shown in the illustration.
While applying approximately 200 kPa (2.0 kgf/ cm2, 29 psi) of air pressure to the oil path, forcibly turn the camshaft timing gear assembly in the advance direction (counterclockwise).
CAUTION:
Cover the paths with a piece of cloth when applying pressure to keep oil from splashing.
Note
Do not allow the camshaft timing gear assembly to lock. If it locks, release the lock pin again.
Tech Tips
The camshaft timing gear assembly may be turned in the advance direction without applying any force.
If enough air pressure cannot be applied because of air leakage from the port, releasing the lock pin may be difficult.
Remove the vinyl tape and rubber pieces from the camshaft.
Remove the bolt and camshaft timing gear.
Note
Do not allow the camshaft timing gear assembly to lock. If it locks, release the lock pin again.
