Measuring Cams haft Lift
Figure 140 Measuring cam lobes with
micrometer
NOTE: If a complete engine overhaul is scheduled,
camshaft lobe wear can be determined by measuring
lobes (Checking Camshaft Lobes and Journals, page
263) with a micrometer after the camshaft is removed.
At this stage of disassembly, determine the
appropriate stage of camshaft inspection. If this
is not a complete engine overhaul, measure camshaft
lobe lift now using the following procedure.
