Dr Dirt Shimming Reassemble The Intake Cam
Dirt Shimming - Shim-Type Valve Adjustment
15 Upon reassembly, start with the intake cam. It will need to set into the head with the timing marks aligned. This Kawasaki has a dot at the top of each cam, and another that lines up with the machined top surface of the head. Next install the exhaust cam. Angle the gear through the chain, then roll it into place. With most engines you will have to hit the timing right, since the chain is usually too tight to jump the chain on the sprocket teeth. View Related Article
