The Old Guy Posted June 22, 2002 Share Posted June 22, 2002 Has anyone experienced an oiling problem after installing new cam bearings in a 401?? I had a call from a gentleman that has 40 PSI at 1500 RPM with lifters that will not pump up.i think it is probably the front cam bearing not properly placed, but wonder if anyone else has had this trouble. <P>Thanx for any help!!

Guest Posted June 22, 2002 Share Posted June 22, 2002 I think you are right on target(as usual),Joe.The groove in the # 1 journal of the camshaft, when the bushing is installed right,feeds the lifter galleries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Skyking Posted June 23, 2002 Share Posted June 23, 2002 I had that trouble on my 401. The lifters were too tight and would not pump up. Made them all loose and they pumped up fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
