SERVICE MANUALVALVE TRAIN - CAMSHAFT, TAPPETS & PUSH RODSSection 4INSTALLATIONInstall valve train components as follows:1.If the camshaft bushings were removed installnew bushings using the Camshaft BushingPuller and Installer Tool. Be sure the oil holes inthe bushing (2, Fig. 16) line up with the oil holesin the crankcase (1) as shown.Figure 16. - Camshaft Bushing Installation1.Crankcase Oil Hole2.Bushing Oil Hole3.Mark2.To ease oil hole alignment, mark the back-up nut(3, Fig. 16) in line with the bushing oil hole (2)as shown when installing the bushings.NOTE: The bushing and crankcase oil holes mustline up.3.If it is necessary to replace the camshaft gear,proceed as follows:a.The drive gear on the camshaft must bepressed off since it is a shrink fit.bPlace the thrust plate on the keyway end ofthe camshaft against the bearing journal.c.Insert the Woodruff Key into the keyway.d.Heat the camshaft gear to approximately205°C (400°F).NOTE: Use thermomelt stick to determinetemperature. (See tool list for tool number).e.Press the gear against the shoulder on theshaft with the timing mark pointed outwardas shown in Fig. 17.CAUTION: Use asbestos gloves when installinggear.Figure 17. - Installing Camshaft Drive Gear4.Coat the cam lobes, bearings and journals withclean engine oil and install the camshaft.5.Install the camshaft so that the timing marksstamped on each gear as shown in (1, Fig. 17)are in line.6.Alternately tighten the thrust plate cap screws to27 N•m (20 Ibf-ft) torque.7.Check the camshaft end play with a dialindicator.0.13mm(0.005in.)0.33 mm (0.013 in.)specifications must be met.8.Install crankcase front cover as described inSection 6.9.Lubricate the O.D. of the tappets with cleanengine oil and tappet faces with Moly Kote "G-n"or Fel Pro C-670 paste. Then install tappets intotappet bores.10.Install the cylinder head and adjust valve lash asoutlined in Section 3.NOTE: It is recommended that the engine be run at1000 RPM from three to five minutes after engine isassembled. At 1000 RPM the tappets are underlighter load, thus lubrication of tappets and tappetbores is assured.CGES-185-3PRINTED IN UNITED STATES OF AMERICAPage 14
