Cam chain replacement.

Post by eric.geiger »

How do you go about replacing the cam chain?? i have the top of my engine apart from the crankcase up currently and want to replace the cam chain while its apart.
How do i feed the new cam chain through the crank case?
i haven't looked at the current cam chain close enough yet to see if it has a master link on it but if it does i could just break the master and link it to the new one and run it through correct??
what if the current chain is solid? How do i remove it and how would i feed the new one through?
Thanks

I did a search and looked around for 2 hours and didn't find the answer I was looking for.
If someone has a link to the thread that would be great.

Besides me writing a How To newsletter for 4 years you will find a lot of the same topics in Messages if you search feltonminicycle

Yes, it's a bad link.  Back to the how-to (written by Bill C.) Try this: Goto the anzhonda600owners group, select files, select Honda 600 cam change.doc From:
