Repair Information:
A. 928 GT Camshaft Correlation Markings.
The copper-colored chain links must be aligned with the electric pencil markings on the camshaft gears (arrows
in figure). Do not align the copper-colored chain links with the casting tabs.
Some early production cars and spare parts may not have the electric pencil markings on the camshaft gears. Use
gauges from special tool 9226 to check camshaft correlation and mark camshaft gears with an electric pencil.
Spare parts will eventually have correct casting tabs.
