In a dual overhead cam (DOHC, twin cam, etc.) engine, the intake cam is the camshaft contolling the intake valves. Thus the opperation of the exhaust valves is left to the exhaust cam.
The intake cam is usually on the same side of the cylinder head as the intake manifold.
The cam is in the engine and it is what opens and closes the intake and exaust valves
DOHC - Dual Overhead Cam. This means that there is an intake and an exhaust cam, allowing the valves to move differently for the intake and exhaust. SOHC uses a single cam with more lobes
it depends on the cam and intake ---a mild cam usually run out at about 5500 rpms you need to check with the cam manufacturer for the specks on the cam and this will usually include the operating range of the cam you have and the same goes for the intake
better air intake
The cam shaft sensor on a 1999 ford escort is on the intake side of the engine just below the intake manifold. The intake manifold has to come off to take the CS sensor off.
yes but only if it is a 4 stroke the cam or camshaft controls the fuel intake and exhaust valves
Right in the front, on top the engine,in the intake cam tower.
Cam sensor is on the driver side front of the engine, mounted into the cam housing.. you may have to take the intake off to access it...
Point the intake cam lobe down and the timing mark on the cam gear at the 12 o clock position with the piston at TDC.
Yes you are correct.
Opens and closes the intake and exhaust valves.
