Camshaft End Play

    NOTE: Make sure that the camshaft is to specification.
  1. Using a Dial Indicator Gauge, 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.
