  • In this video I’ll show you how I replace/rebuild the VVT-I cam gear without completely removing the actual cam itself and the timing belt. This is a delicate process. Please take the time to do this, for it could mess with backlash and engine timing.
    O-ring can be purchase from eBay

      @SokhomGarage  2 роки тому +8

      No, because im not exactly messing with the timing, and the the timing belt stays intact, it doesn’t come off, but yes, you can set it on the timing marks for safe measure.

    • @kidicarus2637
      @kidicarus2637 25 днів тому

      good idea as that will allow you a small safe range of counter-rotation until BTDC if you have to fight with the large hex cover. I've seen them so tight that the cams move ccw.

    Out of curiosity the inside of the cam gear has oil in it did you fill it back up if so how much did you put in

    • @SokhomGarage
      @SokhomGarage  Рік тому +1

      So yes, it did have oil, but it didn’t continue to leak once you’ve taken it off, you might lose a few ounces or so, not a big deal, but you can also determine that by checking the dip stick, check the level to make sure it’s good.

    • @SokhomGarage
      @SokhomGarage  2 роки тому +2

      I can’t say that it’s the safest, honestly looking back into this, the timing belt never comes off, but it’s an effective method, just as long as you mark/score your position and location.

    I have done it two times on different gs300's and i cannot break free the 14mm up front even with two different impact guns, I figure since it's not leaking it doesn't need to be changed.

    • @kidicarus2637
      @kidicarus2637 25 днів тому

      yeah, they get pretty stuck. I put mine engines at TDC, then use a CMCF940. If the timing walks to BTDC, I turn the crank clockwise again until TDC and give the hex some more luv.

  • @joecox9958
    @joecox9958 Рік тому

    which manual you use? there are serious errors. The five 10mm is 11ftlbs, 14mm is 60ftlbs - the 60ftlbs is from genuine manual.

    • @craigwalsh8116
      @craigwalsh8116 Рік тому +1

      60 ft lbs is what the internal 10 mm hex bolt is torqued to. That holds the intake pulley to the intake camshaft. The 14 mm is just to seal the front of the VVTi gear and it's torqued to 11 ft lbs (page EM32 in FSM). Since he is not removing the VVTi gear (you would need to remove the timing belt to do so), the internal hex bolt does not need to be removed. As for the five 10 mm bolts, there is no "official" torque for them since the service manual simply states to replace the whole VVTi gear if it is leaking. 11 ft lbs is the consensus in the forums though.
