removal and installation of the camshaft, put a mark
on the teeth of the fuel injection pump drive gear and
idler gear at location (A). Put a mark on the teeth of
the idler gear and camshaft gear at location (B). The
engine timing will be correct when the marks at
locations (A) and (B) are in alignment and the “C”
marks on the crankshaft and camshaft gears are in
alignment.
2. Remove bolts (1) that hold the camshaft gear
to the camshaft. Remove the camshaft gear.
