Repaired a camshaft today. Appears the gear was not a shrink fit on the cam and rattled back and forth till it ruined the keyway in the cam. Rather than replace the cam we indicated the bottom of the old key way then rotated it 180 deg and cut a new one. Then remarked the gear with a new timing mark 180 deg from the old one.
Please ignore the general filth of the shop and machines. Someday we'll spring clean,
