does sohc engines have cam seal ?????????????

 

yeah its called a distributor

 

Theres one by the cam gear.

 

really ??? how does it looks like cuz I dissasembled a head that I bought and it didnt had anything

 

its the oring on the dizzy

 

If you pull up the valve cover you would see it wrapped around the cam just behind the cam gear. It is black and round like a donut. If it is not there, oil would **** out all over the end of your engine.

 

Is it like a bushing type ?

 

no, its an o-ring on the dizzy

I guess a stupid question gets a stupid answer......

Yea, its on the cam down at the cam gear end, it just slips over the cam when the gear is removed...and whoever ever above me said if there wasn't one there it would spill oil everywhere is right, and when you install a new one, might wanna coat it in a real light amount of rtv.....

And yes, there is an o-ring on the dizzy, but called a distributor seal, not a cam seal
