Re: Cam bearings removal & installation
Today i installed the two inner cam bearings with my $150 tool. But the two outer bearings are the hardest to install. My tool set includes a nylon cone which is helpful in centering the long aluminum tool while I drive it in with my ten pound plastic hammer. This is possible only for the two inner ...

Re: Cam bearings removal & installation
Thanks very much, that makes sense. The service manual has only a very brief description of the procedure.
But how do I crush the bearing? with a hammer and long chisel?
Also I changed my mind and decided to do this cam bearing replacement. The tool cost $150, and I wasn't sure.

Cam bearings removal & installation
Today I drove out the first cam bearing. But the bearing has no way out, that is, I am trying to extract it. The design of the engine won't allow it, since there no opening large enough to extract the bearing. Now I''m also wondering how the heck I'm going to install the two middle cam bearings. 199...

Fuel injectors in flood mode?
Once I was inspecting a '96 Cavalier with a no-start condition, with the fuel rail and injectors removed from the engine. When I turned the ignition switch to "run" position, the injectors began squirting fuel, and continued until I turned the key back to "off" position. Good thi...

Re: Fuel return line

Fuel return line
Why is the fuel return line necessary? Seems this would cause fuel pressure in the fuel rail to fall and cause
the injectors to stop operating.

Service Manual in digitized format?
Where can I find a Service Manual in digitized format, such as PDF?
My hard copy is purchased from Ebay, and it is getting destroyed.
