Where can I purchase metal cam timing gears set for GM 2.5L
- Thread starter 36mmracer
- Start date
P.S. Even though its a fiber gear I have'nt ever seen much trouble with em
other than lack of oil, you need to check and see if there is an oil nipple usually about 1 o-clock at the cam gear usually when one was stripped it was from no oil
easiest way to check is start it before ya put the cover on and look, if no oil clean it out with a peice of wire and a blow gun till ya get it to flow.... I'm talkin bout just a trickle,just a nuff to keep that fiber gear wet...... and if you are forced ta use the fiber one again soak it in a pan of very hot oil for about an hour..lubes the fiber and makes the gear almost slide onto the cam.......also when pushing the gear on be carefull and dont drive the cam out the back of the motor......
