18. Line up the two gears using the timing marks and the three
gear tabs that were referenced earlier. Push the gears back
together, using both hands and hold securely.
19. Once the gears are pressed together, firmly hold the gears
together with one hand. Carefully remove the Tapered Pins
(PU-45497-1) by pulling them out one at a time with the
other hand.
20. After the tapered pins are removed, be sure the cam gear
assembly is held together tightly. Place the cam gear
assembly on a flat surface. Use the Cam Gear Tooth
Alignment Tool (PU-45497-2) to align the teeth of the cam
gears, as shown in the picture.
NOTE: Install the Cam Gear Alignment Tool (PU-
45497-2) into one assembly hole counter clockwise
from the timing mark.
NOTE: For ease of installing the Cam Gear
Alignment Tool (PU-45497-2) (R), use a twisting
motion when pushing down on the tool.
21. To remove the balance shaft gear, the flat side of the
camshaft (P) must face the balance shaft gear. To rotate the
camshaft, use the Cam Spanner Wrench (PU-45498) to
rotate the camshaft so the flat side of the camshaft faces the
balance shaft gear.
NOTE: This Cam Spanner Wrench (PU-45498) is
only needed to rotate the camshaft when the entire
valve train is assembled. If the rocker arms are
removed, the cam-shaft can be turned by hand.
