So if the pinion gear is off a little from the woodruff key location, the cams can appear not to line up perfectly together (even though they are). \\ | So if the pinion gear is off a little from the woodruff key location, the cams can appear not to line up perfectly together (even though they are). \\ | ||
So while lining up the pinion gear and #2 cam, there may be a fudge factor there also to consider when the dots aren't lined up perfectly. \\ | So while lining up the pinion gear and #2 cam, there may be a fudge factor there also to consider when the dots aren't lined up perfectly. \\ | ||
