How to service and repair the camshaft on Lincoln Town Car?

Services or repairs on the camshaft must include preventing crankshaft and camshaft rotation when timing chains come out or cylinder heads get installed due to the risk of severe piston and valve damage. The repair process starts with follower removal of the camshaft so the timing chain faces removal next. In the next step remove the bolt to separate both the camshaft sprocket and spacer. The service requires you to remove the 13 camshaft bearing cap bolts followed by the camshaft bearing cap ladders before extracting the camshaft from the cylinder head. Clean engine oil must be used to lubricate both camshaft journals and bearing cap ladders before installing the camshaft onto the cylinder head. You should first install the camshaft bearing caps and bolts loosely before executing bolt torque to the specified sequence. Position the camshaft sprocket together with its spacer next install the sprocket bolt. You must install the timing chains together with the roller follower at this point.

Should the camshaft lobes be inspected for pitting or damage in the contact area, and what should be done if excessive pitting or damage is found on Lincoln Town Car?

In the Lincoln Town Car vehicles, Camshaft is responsible for the regulation of the intake and exhaust valves to let in the air fuel mixture in the engine for combustion. These camshafts can be block mounted or cylinder head mounted, there can be OHV, SOHC, DOHC mechanism used to operate the valves. The camshaft works in conjunction with the crankshaft so as to be in a position to regulate the movement of the valves at appropriate time. However, to achieve this, some of the conventional performance camshafts can be added from vehicles, which affect the output power in different ways such as lift, duration, and lobe separation angle. The Performance camshafts improve airflow and power and depend on high RPM duration to give increase in high RPM power. It is here that the specifics of the camshaft must be chosen with regard to the compression rate, the type of transmission, and the total weight of the car to achieve the specified goals.
