You will like the Stomski tool for tightening and loosening the cam nut ! Much easier to use.

On the nuts inside the timing boxes (holding the box to the case and the nut that holds the tensioner), I have been counseled to use standard nuts with wave washers as opposed to the fiberlock nuts. I noticed that the fiberlock was not getting well down over the threads, thus the question of their being effective. The answer was go back with wave washers and standard nuts.

I'm sure you will get differing opinions...

You can see the issue here..





Changed over as described....
