Another clip?
nulu,
Thanks for the info... it took all day but I got the valve cover off.
I don't see any markings on the camshafts. I borrowed a friend's cam alignment tools and it seemed like the intake was off by 2 teeth. The exh cam guide fit but the intake didn't … it was very close.
Very possible considering the ugly noises I heard while attempting to install the new tensioner the first time.
I removed the tensioner and played gently with the crank loosing the chain and was able to get the cams where they should be... I think.
Both alignment guides fit on the cams. I don't see any laser lines, hash marks, scratches or anything... but now the alignment guides fit.
Looking at the pictures, does this make sense?
I sure do appreciate you sharing your time and obvious knowledge.
BTW I believe that I have the crank set to TDC. Both cams have lobes pointing NOT at the #1 cyl valves valves and the crank markings are pointing up. It's kinda fuzzy and worn but it looks like TDC.

Are these cams set right?
