Carefully remove the camshaft from the cylinder block.
Inspect the camshaft
After removal, wash all parts with gasoline, wipe and dry.
Inspect the camshaft. If there are burrs, deep scratches, holes, chips, cracks on the journals, cams and gear of the oil pump drive, replace the camshaft.
Measure the diameters of the camshaft journals
Inspect the push rods. Replace bent rods. If signs of wear are noticeable on the tips of the rods, burrs, shells, also replace the rods.
It should be noted that the length of the motor rod mod. 402 is equal to 283 mm, and the engine mod. 4021 - 287 mm.
Inspect the pushers. If the working surfaces show signs of wear, pitting, scuffing, etc., replace the pushers.
If the camshaft gear has damaged teeth or cracks, it must be replaced.
Measure the axial clearance of the camshaft.
To do this, assemble the shaft with the gear, put a spacer ring and a thrust flange on the front end of the camshaft, then press on the gear and tighten the gear bolt with the washer.
Tighten the bolt to a torque of 55–60 Nm (5.5–6.0 kgf m).
Use a feeler gauge to measure the gap between the camshaft thrust flange and the gear hub; it should be within 0.1–0.2 mm.
Installing the camshaft
Install the camshaft in the reverse order of removal.
Before installation, lubricate the camshaft journals and cams, tappets and tappet rods with engine oil.
After installation, adjust the clearances in the valve drive.
