Post by **Not_a_sr** » Tue Apr 25, 2006 1:27 pm

I am beggining to get frustrated with my car, actually im fed up, so my camshat and crank angle sensor got in a fight and the CAS won, got a cam from another ca guy on the boards and well drove it or 2 days and went to try to start it and it would so i checked the plugs and they were black and sooty, went to start it again and nothing...So i went and check to see if my crank angle was doin anything, pulled it out and shaaazaamm the keyway fell into my hand...Needless to say i had a blast with this car yesterday but im going ot need another exhaust camshaft with a good keyway. Who has one?

hey, if you wanna fix the ones that youve broken, lemme know, i can replace the CAS driver inside the exhaust cam with a brand new one that wont break like the old ones you keep going through.

might beable to fix one of them, but the one we got from ryan completely broke, the head where the gear mounts broke right by the first cam cap. not ryans fault but somthing in the cam wasnt good, im glad noone had it running n had it break and smash up some valves.

yea i cant fix that one short of rewelding it, but its stock so no reason to go to all the trouble, but if you need a new CAS driver in the nose of the cam, lemme know.

ill offer the service to anyone that wants to replace the CAS driver with a new one so you dont have the headache of being without a car for a small fee + Shipping. Dee if youd like i can replace all the ones in your extra cams so that when ppl need them, they know they will be getting a good one.

if you're breaking CAS splines very frequently, take a look at your water pump. if it's not genuine it probably fouls on the top cambelt cover, this throws the cover out of line which means the CAS isn't running true so puts sideways force on the locator. I've had this where I've had to use a course file and remove a little material from the cover then it works fine

ill pass on this word , its probable that this is the cause, the first time was because we powder coated his timing cover and instead of sanding the powder out to fit the CAS he used a carbite deburing tool to get it off which left it just slightly out of round
