What does excessive delay in camshaft position timing mean?

[SophiaLynn]

Excessive delay in camshaft intake timing means: The timing system of the car engine will experience ignition delay. This can lead to excessive engine vibration and difficulty in starting the engine. Here is some additional information about engine timing ignition: 1. At idle, there is a clear rhythmic metal knocking sound, and the sound intensifies as the engine speed increases. This indicates axial displacement of the timing gear or damage to individual gear teeth. Generally, the engine timing transmission in cars is belt-driven. If regular maintenance and adjustments are not performed, timing belt jumping may occur. This can cause abnormal engine noises, poor acceleration, and lack of power. 2. If the belt jumping is severe, the engine may experience shaking, difficulty in starting, and even damage to the valves.
