Re: cam gear removal????? (b19coupe)
I used an air gun to break them loose...they come with ease. I also did it with the timing belt off cuz the gun breaks it loose so fast that the cams dont turn. But if they did turn, it would only be slightly, and u would be able to turn them back.

I just slid a long screwdriver through the spokes of the gear and that was enough to hold them while I broke the bolt loose.

That is if the cams are in the engine. Out of the engine, a 1/2" impact gun would be the tool of choice.
