Special tools required:
(cylinder bank 1 to 4)
Removal of intermediate levers is described separately from installation.
Necessary preliminary tasks:
IMPORTANT: The inlet camshaft must first be rotated so that when the bearing bracket is removed the intermediate levers do not slip out and damage the camshaft.
Rotate inlet camshaft in direction of rotation until cam on 1st cylinder is positioned horizontally as shown in illustration.
Fig. 429: Locating Camshaft
IMPORTANT: Camshaft bearing caps of cylinders 1 to 4 and 5 to 8 must not be mixed up.
NOTE: Bearing caps of inlet camshaft are marked on cylinder bank 1 to 4 with L E1 to L E5 from inlet side.
Release nuts and remove bearing cap L E1.
