Checking the camshaft
1. Check the edge and face of the brim on
the port camshafts and starboard intake
camshaft that is used for the cam posi-
tion sensor. Replace if rough, damaged,
or scratched.
NOTE:
• Do not scratch or damage the face of the
brim.
• If there is a scratch more than 0.2 mm
(0.008 in) deep or more than 0.5 mm (0.020
in) wide on the surface of the brim, a mal-
function may occur in the cam position sen-
sor signal.
2. Measure the cam lobe. Replace if out of
specification.
