Chain case oil leak and cam re-timing needed?
Hi All
I have a small oil leak on the right chain case where it meets the case and was after some advice whether i can repair this without a major job of Cam re-timing as i dont have the crow foot and associated tools. I have the engine out at moment so would make sense to do it but i dont have the crowfoot tool or P202 tool or Dial indicator guage. I have read that the sprocket nut can be removed with an air gun on socket but after some advice please on this job. Thanks guys

You can't really take the case off without removing the sprocket.
I suppose if you very carefully marked everything (chain, sprocket, alignment pin, etc.) and put it back together the same way you'd be close to having the correct timing. Either way I think you are going to need the crow's foot to tighten it all back to spec.

You cannot do this without the tools to remove the sprocket and then to retime the engine. Where are you located?

Invest on the right tools......

Unless you could find someone local to lend you the tools, you could either buy or fabricate your needed tools. I have been making and building specials tools for over 50 years but owning tools made by Steve Stomski is a completely different experience. Buy the tools and resell them later. You need them period. Tony |
