With the 46mm crowfoot tool and cam holder tool, I removed my camshaft nut. Took a lot of force but no big deal. In Wayne's book, it seems that the cam sprocket should just slide off once the cam nut is removed. Mine will not budge. Am I missing something?

There is a pin in one of the sprocket holes.
Put the nut back on hand tight. Rotate the engine to TDC. Remove the chain tensioner. Take the nut and wave washer back off. Use a spark plug as a tool (remove the threaded connector) to pull the pin out. Chain is now loose. Remove sprocket. |
