General Procedures

  1. Determine the diameter of the camshaft journals.
    • Using a micrometer measure the diameter at 90 degrees intervals to determine if the journals are out-of-round.
    • Measure at two different points on the journal to determine if there is any tapering.
    • If the measurements are out of the specified range, install a new camshaft.
