Hi, i'm trying to find out the movement in degrees the inlet cam moves during advanced and retard process with vvt .

 

I have no idea what you are going to do with this information but advanced is 30 degs BTDC, retarded is spot on TDC.

 

Thanks. i'm going to machine up a couple of adjustable cam verniers to remove the vvt on a project engine i'm working on. The engine is striped at the moment and i have both inlet cams on the work bench .so as they are would they be sat full retarded ?

 

Google for "Engine repair course code 168" and download. You really need it.

 

That is just what iv'e been looking for thank you.
Thank you.

 

Grab everything vaguely useful from the extra files on here. Hunt around Gus's JagRepair.com - Jaguar Repair Information Resource as well.

 

Now, this sort of thread just doesn't seem to happen on the UK forum. I admit that I have no use for this knowledge myself, but my experience of the UK forum gives me the feeling that it's all about the minutia of everyday life rather than in depth knowledge like this.

Apologies to any UK members, but that's just how it seems.

 

Thank's more good info.

 

Thank's more good info.. iv'e bought the aluminium and have started machining the pullys tonight but im only getting a hr a evening at the moment so will take a few days .

 

Post back any time, there're guys on here who'll be willing you on!

 

Don't forget the pictures!

 

Well i'm getting there slowly. this is where i'm at with the machining so far. hopefully i will have the cam gear mount/adjustment slots cut out by a friend on his mill next week then i can carry on with making the locating key way and marking out the degree markings on the pully.

 

Not sure what your trying to do?

Are you wanting to lock the VVT out completely and put the engine back to fixed cam timing?

Yes i'm removing the vvt and going to a adjustable vernier.

 

Sorry for no update on this guys but i had a break in just after my last post and had my workshop clear'd out by some thieves and lost all my tools and box's of random bits n pieces i've collected over the years. i WILL be back with a update when i have my mojo back. :-(
