CAMSHAFT BEARINGS
This procedure requires that the engine is removed
from the vehicle.
REMOVAL
(1) With engine completely disassembled, drive out
rear cam bearing core hole plug.
(2) Install proper size adapters and horseshoe
washers (part of Camshaft Bearing Remover/Installer
Tool) at back of each bearing shell. Drive out bearing
shells (Fig. 50).
INSTALLATION
(1) Install new camshaft bearings with Camshaft
Bearing Remover/Installer Tool by sliding the new
camshaft bearing shell over proper adapter.
(2) Position rear bearing in the tool. Install horse-
shoe lock and by reversing removal procedure, care-
fully drive bearing shell into place.
(3) Install remaining bearings in the same man-
ner. Bearings must be carefully aligned to bring oil
holes into full register with oil passages from the
main bearing. If the camshaft bearing shell oil holes
are not in exact alignment, remove and install them
correctly. Install a new core hole plug at the rear of
camshaft. Be sure this plug does not leak.
