Reassembly question
Hey everybody Ive been stuck on reassembly of my cams for quite some time and have been putting it off. I’ve watched a lot of videos to try and see the process as well as ChatGPT but can’t get a clear answer. Right now Ive for the cams put back in after doing the acctuator and cam seals. I lined up the single dots on the passenger side and the double dots on the driver side of the internal sprockets. The passenger side timing mark is close to where it needs to be so I feel good about that The driver side one off for the outer timing mark for the engine. Do I not have to worry about the double dots after lining them up when I place the cam back in? Can I just rotate the Cam clockwise until it lines up on the front or do I need to have the crank at 50° past tdc? No video really shows that, and ChatGPT was acting like I would mess cams up potentially if I turned it that much without the crank being in that position. Im not just relying on ChatGPT but no one has clarity for this lol.
