Hi,
Took pictures of everything, before removing the head, but 'forgot' or didn't take one of the camshaft positions, when the camshaft sprockets are properly aligned.
Does anyone have a picture of the camshaft position i.e. the position off the actual cams, when the sprockets are properly aligned?
Would appreciate a view, just to ensure I have put it all back together properly.....:mad:
 
K series right? With the sprockets off the roll pins on the cam shaft ends should be at: 4 o'clock for the inlet side and 8 o'clock for the exhaust. When the sprockets are on and you're nearly ready to fit the cam belt the 'exhaust' mark on each sprocket should point to the rear i.e.: the inlet side. The 'in' mark should point at the front i.e: the exhaust side. Prior to removing the head you have of course aligned the crank pulley timing marks? You may already know this, but just in case, do not rotate the crank with the head off UNLESS you have clamped the cylinder liners down first.
