How to align the camshaft of a 466 engine?
1 Answers
Alignment marks are present on the engine's timing gear, the front end of the crankshaft, and the flywheel. Rotate the engine crankshaft to position the first cylinder piston at top dead center. Align the timing mark on the camshaft gear with the timing mark on the chain and secure it. Install the crankshaft drive sprocket and ensure that the timing mark on the chain aligns with the mark on the sprocket. Finally, make sure that the three timing marks on the timing chain correspond with the two timing marks on the camshaft sprocket and the one timing mark on the crankshaft sprocket.
