Camshaft Actuator Locking Pin Adjustment
- Ensure the timing marks (1) on the camshaft gears and the line on the phaser body (2) are aligned with the yellow links (3) on the timing chain.
- Remove the front camshaft journal cap (1), to access the internal camshaft oil galleys.
- To expose the oil galley (1), needed to unlock the internal actuator lock pin, rotate the engine until the no. 1 intake cam lobes face down (2).
- Loosen the cam actuator retaining bolt two turns, then ensure the actuator is unseated from the intake camshaft.
- Apply shop air to the oil galley (1).
- While applying air pressure to the oil galley (1), turn the camshaft (2), backwards and forwards until the locking pin releases and the camshaft moves toward the from the engine.
- When the actuator releases, hold the camshaft (1), and tighten the camshaft actuator sprocket bolt to specification to prevent the actuator from locking. Tighten: Tighten the camshaft actuator sprocket bolt to 55 N.m (40 lb ft).
- Check to ensure the actuator is still unlocked.
