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 no technical reason for TDC. Just a way to keep order.
But do not rotate the crank after removing the chains as long as the cams are still installed. I would lightly pry or wiggle the sprocket. It is not too thick where it goes onto the inner sprocket. |
