Installing the camshaft and valve lifter
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Volvo S40, 2003 Volvo S40, 2002 Volvo S40, 2001 Volvo S40, and 2000 Volvo S40. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Install both the valve lifters for the inlet valves at cylinder 1.
Check the previously taken notes.
NOTE:
Only install two valve lifters. The valve lifters must be placed at the same cylinder.
Install the intake camshaft. Ensure that the lobes at cylinder 1 point upwards.
Apply a little oil to the cam lobe and the upper side of the valve lifter to facilitate measurement later.
