Cam Carrier LH

Insert the steel rods into ST, and set the engine so that the camshaft LH is facing up.
CAUTION:
- If the engine is standing on one side without inserting the steel rod into ST, engine may lose balance and fall down. Be sure to insert the steel rod into ST to extend the length.
- Use the steel rod with enough strength.
- Be careful not to pinch the engine harness with ST.
