Unscrew the camshaft holder bolts two turns at a
time, in a crisscross pattern. Then remove the
camshaft holders from the cylinder head.
Lift the camshafts out of the cylinder head, wipe
them clean. then inspect the lift ramps. Replace the
camshaft if any lobes are pitted, scored, or
excessively worn,
Clean the camshaft journal surfaces in the cylinder
head, then set the camshafts back in place. Place a
plastigage strip across each journal.
Install the camshaft holders, then tighten the bolts
to the specified torque as shown in step 2.
Remove the camshaft holders. Measure the widest
portion of plastigage on each journal.
