  • The last part of my 400EX engine rebuild. Setting cam timing and valve lash. I didn't have any good footage of adjusting the cam sprocket.

    So I align the cam without the tensioner?Because the second you get tension on the chain the marks wouldn't align anymore right?

    Theres a line on cam sprocket that is supposed to be facing up out is supposed to be in mite still work like that but it's not the right way

      Reason why it still works is cuz it really doesn’t matter. As long as the two main Cam lines are flush with the cylinder head at TDC. Both ‘The Third Center Line’ and the ‘OUT word’ on the Cam both take turns popping up at top dead center. As the crank rotates 360* degrees the Cam will only rotate 180* degrees.

    Why is there an out mark on the sprocket that's supposed to be out but makes a guy think that it's 180 out.???

    So, what is wearing out that causes the adjustment, the cam?

      I would guess the cam and the rocker arm part that rides on it. I don’t know correct term for it.

    For the valve ajustement
    You turn the motor on top dead center ?

    • @Mudford
      @Mudford  4 года назад

      Tristan Courteau Yes, but you need to ensure you are on the compression stroke and not the exhaust stroke. If you are on the exhaust stroke, your exhaust valves will be open.
