CAUTION
Use only the correct gearcase cover gasket (see parts
catalog for Part No.). Using pre-2000 model year gasket
will obstruct oil galley and result in engine damage.
4. See Figure 3-62. Install a new seal (6) and new dry
gearcover gasket (9) on gearcase cover (17).
5. Install gearcase cover over all gears and onto right
crankcase half (10). Secure cover to crankcase half with
11 socket head screws. Tighten screws evenly to 80-110
in-lbs (9-12 Nm). Use torque sequence shown in
3-73.
6. See Figure 3-74. Check cam gear end play for each cam
gear as follows:
a. Turn engine over until lobe of cam gear being
checked is pointing toward its respective lifter guide
hole.
b. Gently pry the cam gear toward the gearcase cover
using a flat blade screwdriver.
c. Measure gap between bushing (in crankcase half)
and cam gear shaft thrust face (shoulder) using a
feeler gauge. This is cam gear end play.
d. Compare cam gear end play measurements with
the SERVICE WEAR LIMITS. Make repairs as
required if end play does not meet specifications.
7. Install hydraulic lifters and push rods. See
HYDRAULIC LIFTERS.
8. Install cam position sensor in gearcase cover. See
CAM POSITION SENSOR AND
