Cam Wear Patterns at Donna Keely blog

Cam Wear Patterns. I took some pics and hopefully you guys can tell me for sure what the problem was and if the wear patterns on the lobes look good. Lobe taper, lifter crown, valve train weight and oil distribution all contribute to the unique. It is easy to tell if a cam is worn out without removing the engine or the need for close inspection. When there is a lack of lubrication, whether due to blocked oil passages or too much clearance space, you’ll begin to notice wear patterns. The lifter's radiused crown (exaggerated here for clarity) should track slightly offset from the lobe's. The first step in checking for camshaft wear is a visual inspection. The cam was broke in using a bottle of the. Remove the valve cover and carefully examine. Camshaft follower wear is a critical issue that requires regular monitoring and maintenance. Proper lubrication is vital to maintain normal camshaft operation. This is due to increased friction as the camshaft rotates. The hardened cam shaft lobe is dragged across the hardened lifter face under great pressures from valvesprings and.
