When reinstalling the camshaft sprocket. Do you just line it up to the cam marks and torque it down? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
I'm trying to install my cam after timing chain replacement and had to go cam cradle route… cams are in time but o can't seem to get the cams to seat properly because of the tension on the belt. Is there ant persific way you can reccomend please? Many thanks Chris.
Can u spin the cams freely with out chain!?
I would have lubed the camshaft before installing it to the dry integrated bearing surfaces to minimize clean-up, You should also lube all your new rockers and cam lobe surfaces before installing the camshafts. I would have created 2 long alignment headless bolts/pins pre-installed to opposite corners of the head to enable lowering the cradle straight down onto the head without fear of being misaligned. I will guess that you will crank the engine for a while before actually allowing it to start to give time for oil pressure to build up all throughout the engine and get lube oil everywhere before a true first start-up load is applied to all these nice new parts and clean surfaces. Thanks for the rebuild video, I can see the cam alignment black tool is not really needed.
The small cut outs opposite the bolt holes on carrier and next to spark plug chambers are not ment to be siliconed
The silicon job is Bullshit!!! Why have to put silicon in the oil chanel????! If somebody follow this way, after some hundred kilometers have to start again the head repair !!!
Sorry, but the cam adjuster has 2 positions… I really can't get why is yours not moving at all? I'm currently bleeding, since don't know where to set the adjuster
Thank you very much .Took me a lot of hours to find this video after watching many other ones with misinformation.
15:30 A single frame is worth a thousand other YouTube videos. So THAT'S what the counting links business is all about!
Спасибо, дорогой друг!)
Great info.
What's the best way to get the head off the car ? Do you need to put it in service mode for the front end or can you remove it ?
Dude.. thank you so much for this video. Was having trouble finding a video for the chain install for my vw bpy engine.
you missed the silicone sealing. Nobody follow this way. Follow the drawing in the rigth top corner! If you follow this you will not face missfire problem!
When the cilinder head is installed on the motor with timing belt etc and you want to change the tensioner and the chain. Do I also have to take out the cam adjuster, or can I change the tensioner and chain without taking them out. What I don’t understand how can you move the intake cam while the cams are been hold with the special tool. Is it not possible to install the adjuster without moving it?
Tks to do this video
Im working on my 07 passat 2.0. T and its very helpfull. I got a lot of tools but every coin i spend its worht.
