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?

All of mine always easily came off after removing the pin. You need to take the chain tension off the sprocket beforehand. It's not necessary to put it at TDC, but it will make life easier as you continue taking it apart.
It it's jammed on there, someone messed it up. You can't re-time the cam if that sprocket jams on it. |
