    1. The cam timing oil control valve assembly controls its spool valve using duty-cycle control from the ECM. This allows hydraulic pressure to be applied to the camshaft timing gear assembly or camshaft timing exhaust gear assembly advance or retard side. When the engine is stopped, the cam timing oil control valve assembly (intake) will move to the retard position, and the cam timing oil control valve assembly (exhaust) will move to the advance position.
