Thanks for the update Andy :thumbright:

Should there not be a lock tab on those cam bolts ?

No lock tab, best to use Loctite though.

[quote..... Should there not be a lock tab on those cam bolts ?[/quote]




Answer me one question.....if the cam is rotating clockwise, and the bolts are turned in clockwise is it possible for the cam bolts to unscrew??????




As far as I know (and who am I ) a lock tab was only fitted to the single bolt cam :roll: :read2: :roll: :read2: :roll: :read2:
