    Camshaft woes..

    Got the nut off the timing gear, what comes next? Is the fuel eccentric lobe a separate piece from the timing gear?
    TIA

    If you have the bolt and washer off you can pull the distributor drive gear , then the fuel eccentric, and finally the upper timing gear. 3 separate pieces. There are 2 woodruff keys in the camshaft, 1 for the distributor drive and fuel eccentric, the other for the timing gear. They are just a snug fit, but sometimes varnish will stick them on. A bit of heat from a propane torch sometimes helps.
