rocker cover



  ph2 172,2010 transit
im about to take my rocker cover off want to check the timing etc. does the rocker bolts also hold the cams in place or is it safe enough to go a head and take it off ? thanks in advance
 
  Now Sold :-(
I believe the cover holds the cams in place so you probably do not want to remove unless absolutely necessary.

Await expert.......

on a 172/182? DO NOT UNDO THE BOLTS

inlet and exhaust cam pulleys HAVE to be removed first, and you need the RENALT ONLY tools for that

rocker cover stays in place for checking the timing anyway

If the engine doesn't run I would be checking the basics 1st. All leads and plugs connected, Spark, petrol etc.
