2F overhead cam?

[Rochfort]

Guys, can you replace the cam on a '78 2F without pulling the engine.??

 

[brian]

yes

It's a pushrod engine, not overhead cam.

 

[Steamer]

The cam sits low in the engine a little higher than the crankshaft. It comes out and goes in from the front.
“HERE” is a short vid of one going in.

Are you planning on removing yours? We can walk you through it.

Bottom end. Run it up on a lift, drop the pan and check for play on the journal. Just went through this…I only had some glitter in the oil. No knocks, just a bearing going south..

OK good to know.
Main bearing?
Dipstick oil is amber and clean. No grit, no flakes. 50 kilometers on a rebuilt top end. Valves, pistons, not rocker arms, pushrods or cam.
