How to align the two points on a 465 camshaft?
1 Answers
465 camshaft two-point alignment steps are as follows: Rotate the crankshaft to position the No. 1 cylinder piston at the compression top dead center (TDC), aligning the timing marks on both the camshaft and crankshaft sprockets. When the No. 4 cylinder piston is at TDC, its timing mark should align, with both intake and exhaust valves of the No. 4 cylinder in the closed position. Remove the bolt from the camshaft sprocket, then detach the timing chain and camshaft sprocket. Install the timing chain onto the camshaft sprocket, secure the sprocket while letting the chain hang freely, and align the timing marks on both the camshaft and crankshaft sprockets. Align the locating pin holes on the sprocket with those on the camshaft, then reinstall the sprocket onto the camshaft. Lubricate the timing sprockets and chain with engine oil. Rotate the crankshaft two full turns and check if the engine timing marks are properly aligned. If the timing marks do not align, repeat the above steps to readjust.
