Russleh Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 you will also notice that the inlet cam gear is split. you should have placed a bolt through the service hole to keep it under tention so that when its put back together it helps mesh the 2 gears better russell Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rorenapier Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Doesnt help mesh anything, it stops the inlet cam rattling. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Russleh Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Thats what i ment. Somethin that doesnt rattle is working better than something that does , no ?Russell Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rorenapier Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 You never mentioned rattling, you stated "it helps mesh the 2 gears better "They mesh together fine even when you dont tension the cam gear, hence i posted what i did. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Russleh Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Meh. Not gonna argue over something so pointless. Knew what i ment by it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
