Picture #5 Showing the marks needed to get the cam timing correct upon re-assembly. It is easier to see what's happening with the starting dog nut removal with the cover off |
Picture #6 The nut is off and the tool installed (five nuts on the fan studs) ready for the removal of the actual damper by applying small and even torque on the outer 5 nuts one at a time . |
The force of the outer piece of the tool is exerted upon the end of the crankshaft while the tool studs pull the damper off the tapered shaft. Mine was on very tight and a loud report (rifle shot) sounded as it broke loose. One would think something broke, but examination showed about 1/8" gap leaving the tool to be removed before the removal of the damper by hand. Observe the rotation of the cam gear as the damper comes off. It is what has to be considered as the gears are reassembled. The following pictures explain the damper disassembly: |
