Bam Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 I'd like to remove my e-cam from my 5.0 tonight or tomorrow, but not sure how to do it. The engine is currently out of the car, on an engine hoist, so access is not a problem. Any help appreciated, and if someone wants to, give me a call at 595-5536 tonight since I won't be able to check my computer until tomorrow morning. Otherwise I'll just attempt it tomorrow. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1647545494 Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 take off the timing cover and the timing chain and then you just pull it out make sure to pull it out straight if it gets crooked you might tear up a cam bearing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
