Lubricate camshaft lobes and journals of
camshaft (10) and thrust plate (8) with
grease.
Do not try to force the camshaft
in the camshaft bore as damage
to the camshaft bushing can
result.
(18)
Install camshaft (10) and camshaft gear (9).
While pushing in slightly, rotate camshaft
gear and carefully work camshaft through
camshaft bushings. As each camshaft
journal passes through a bushing, camshaft
will drop slightly and camshaft lobes will
catch on bushings. Rotating camshaft gear
will free the lobe from bushing and allow
camshaft to be installed.
(19)
Before camshaft gear (9) engages
crankshaft gear (6), check camshaft (10)
for ease of rotation. When installed
properly, camshaft should rotate freely.
(20)
Position thrust plate (8) and align timing
marks as illustrated.
