Mounting SOHC cam gear
I'm a little confused on how to mount the adjustable cam gear.
My original one has a ping in it, but all the aftermarket, including the one I bought, has a grove. How does it lock on to the camshaft?
P.S.
Before everyone starts sending me to the “search” section, I already tried it and had no luck.

Never did a dseries but i'm assuming its all the same, if i'm wrong somebody can have my mother. Anyways there should be a litte wedge shaped pin that goes on the cam, then you slide the cam gear over.

Re: Mounting SOHC cam gear (triple_s1x)
that's exactly how it is. When you remove the stock cam gear there will be a little wedge piece that goes in the grooved slot which normally will sit TDC.
Good luck but if you are unclear pick up your Hayes/Chilton book for a quick walk through..

Re: Mounting SOHC cam gear (L.D.S. Construction)
i had a cam gear that didnt come with one so i ended up making one out of hardened steel, took a long time to make it fit perfect but it was worth not paying the 50 cents for one

Re: Mounting SOHC cam gear (L.D.S. Construction)
Thanks for the help. I'll check the local shops first, and if I can't get one locally, then call around.
I was afraid I might have bought the wrong one, but thank you for clearing it up.
