    Cam Sprockets

    Hi all,

    Having a panic up about the nuts on the end of the cam sprocket.
    The locating/fixing nut is there adjacent to the sprocket (& tabbed), but it looks like there should be another one on the very end (its threaded).
    If they are supposed to be there, i have to dive in & find them

    Its the same on both banks.
    Cant see properly in the ROM or Haynes.
    Have attached a couple of photos.
    Have also attached a homemade coolant flush piccie, which i got from another thread on here, proper proud of myself

    Any help/advice really appreciated

    Don't worry, they are only used to secure the sprockets to the brackets if you want to remove the camshafts or even the cylinder heads without disturbing the timing chains. The nuts MUST NOT be fitted in normal use.

      Its there to retain the sprockets for head removal so that the chains stay in place.

        Thank you both so much, had a proper panic up on that.
        Couldn't see it in ROM or Haynes either.
