Removal & Installation: Camshaft: Installation

  1. Check bearing cap oil holes for blockage. Install camshaft into cylinder head and align bearing caps in proper sequence, with bearing cap No. 1 at timing belt end and bearing cap No. 5 at transmission end.
  2. Ensure arrows on bearing caps No. 1, 2, 3 and 4 point toward timing belt to prevent bearing cap breakage. Apply anaerobic sealer to sealing surfaces of No. 1 and 5 bearing caps. Install bearing cap nuts and tighten.
  3. Maximum camshaft end play is .005-.013" (.13-.33 mm). Lightly coat outside diameter of new oil seal with Loctite (4057987) for steel case or use soapy water for rubber coated steel case. Using Oil Seal Installer (C-4680), install oil seal flush with camshaft bearing cap. To complete installation, reverse removal procedure.
