Since I have to open it up -thought I would also check/replace the lifters - tensioners and replace the IMS bearing .The big decision is the LN bearing or Pelican .The Porsche bearing has worked for 116,000 miles -probably safe bet that another would last until it's clutch time again .(clutch was replaced by previous owner 5,000 miles ago )

Suggestion · Original poster

Would anyone happen to have the dimensions for making the cam securing tool ?I have a 1999 Cab with an apparent stuck cam accuator .Using the Durametric it's a flat 12 degrees idle to 6000 rpm .The Durametric folks say that they have had reports of a broken spring causing this condition .What's curious is that it doesn't trip the cel .

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • Rennlist: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 2Original post

PM me with your email and I will send you a dimensioned drawing and some pics for making the tool. Pretty easy to make, particularly if you have a drill press. I made mine with a vice and a hand drill.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
