Camshaft Retard Offset (5.0L & 5.7L): Inspection

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 35 other vehicles, including the 2002 Saturn Vue, 2002 Pontiac Montana, 2002 Pontiac Aztek, 2002 Oldsmobile Silhouette, and 2002 Oldsmobile Bravada. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Camshaft retard offset reading will not be accurate with engine speed less than 1000 RPM.
  1. With ignition off, connect scan tool to Data Link Connector (DLC). Start engine and allow it to reach normal operating temperature.
  2. Increase engine speed to more than 1000 RPM. Using scan tool, monitor CAM RETARD OFFSET. If camshaft retard indicates zero degrees, distributor is properly adjusted. Procedure is complete. If camshaft retard is not zero degrees, see ADJUSTMENT .
