Camshaft End Play

Camshaft End Play

1. NOTE: Make sure that the camshaft is to specification.

Using the special tool, measure the end play.
^ Slide the camshaft in both directions. Read and note the maximum and minimum values on the dial indicator gauge.
End play = maximum value minus minimum value.
^ If the measurement is out of specification, install new components.
