Camshaft Journal Clearance

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Cadillac SRX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Install the camshaft bearing cap in the cylinder head without the camshaft.
  2. CAUTION: Refer to Fastener Caution .
  3. Install the camshaft cap bolts and tighten to 10 N.m (89 lb in).
  4. Measure the camshaft bearings using an inside micrometer.
  5. Subtract the camshaft journal diameter from the camshaft bearing diameter. This will provide the running clearance. If the running clearance exceeds specifications and the camshaft journals are within specification, replace the cylinder head.
