Try tying 2 clean rags on a injector lube at #2 and #5 use as a handle to set the cam in Did it for years like that 37 year heavy duty mechanic w/ 27 at freightliner dealership I always used assemble lube wiping all areas of the bearings 100% of the contact surfaces not just a dab
You really should put loctite on the diamond seal plate bolts. If they back out your gear train is trash. Just sayin'. When you ck backlash, you are suppose to remove the vertical bolt, stick a screwdriver in and hold the idler gear from turning for accurate ck. Only measure cam gear against the idler.
What kind of gasket maker is that you use? Had mine rebuilt three weeks ago already leaking in that cam housing on corner of head towards firewall you put sealant on
That is anerobic sealant. Detroit calls it gasket eliminator, Cat calls it gasket maker. Locktite makes it and you can get it at your local parts house. The number is Locktite 515.
Worked at a high volume dealership for 27 years rebuilt too many S60 to count Never inspected a cam shaft like that Or lubed cam bearing during assembly like that At least hes using a most likely out dated manual for assembly ( on line info for most up dated instructions and specs Detroit updated those manuals on a regular basis Serious S60 mechanic would have the correct socket Before installing injectors always check injector timing travel (old cummins injector travel tool works great just make a long tip that mounts to the dial indicator to reach the piston )
In my book it says it on page 1-421.its so the sealant that we put on 1 and 7 isnt affected by the oil,causing a leak. because theres oil in all other bearing there should be clearance between bearing and camshaft in 1 and 7.
The best part of this ordeal is attempting to explain to the driver why this was needed.
Thanks. We been experiencing oil leaks on diamond seal area. This helped me greatly. I tried to send you $ but that was complicated.

Good information sir

Great video I hate Detroit engines and I have two of them. I wish I had a field full of big cam Cummins. At least I am learning how to work on my junk

DO NOT PUT OIL ON CAP 1 & 7
Why? I am curious you should always put oil on bearing to crank surfaces. Starting a fresh rebuild with no oil is a disaster. More info please!!!!!!!
