1) Cam
•
Cam lobe height
Use a micrometer to measure the
cam lobe height and journal diameter.
If the measured value is less than the
specified limit, the camshaft must
replaced.
•
Cam surface
Inspect the cam face for scratch or damage.
•
Slight step wear or damage on the cam face may be corrected with oil stone or oiled grind-
ing paper. But, replace if severely damaged.
2) Cam shaft
•
Clearance between camshaft jour-
nal and camshaft bush
- With an outside micrometer, mea-
sure the camshaft journal diameter.
- Measure the inside diameter of the
camshaft bushing on the cylinder
block using a cylinder bore indicator,
and compare the measured value
with the camshaft outside diameter
to determine the clearance.
<Clearance>
Replace the bushing if the measured
value is beyond the specified limit.
