Camshaft: Description and Operation
Camshaft - Description
DESCRIPTION
A single overhead camshaft per cylinder head provides valve actuation. The left camshaft accommodates a cam sensor pick-up wheel and is therefore
longer. Each camshaft is supported by four bearing journals. A thrust plate attached to the rear of each cylinder head controls camshaft end play. Right
and left camshaft driving sprockets support a timing mark, are keyed, and not interchangeable because of the cam sensor pick-up wheel on the left
sprocket. Camshaft bearing lubrication is provided via a oil supply passage through each rocker shaft pedestal dowel.
