Cam gears whining...

My cam gears whine like there is no tomorrow...they are stock. Any ideas on what it could be? They dont have their own bearings do they?

Usually that means your timing belt is too tight.

Could simply mean that they are rubbing on the inner timing belt cover. It may need to be trimmed slightly for clearance.

Re: Cam gears whining... (G3-TEG)

so how would one go about loosening the timing belt?
i checked out g3-teg's site, but can i do this without doing an entire timing belt change?
can i get access to the tensioner by itself?
