Install Camshaft

Unread post by Pasi80 »

Hello.

My Citroen C3 1.2 110 THP (2018, HNZ
/EB2DT) engine head is repaired.

Now I am assembling the engine. Next part is installing the camshaft before I connect the cylinder head and lower engine.

I am not sure how to install the camshaft?

I have read that first cylinder/piston need to set in tdc position (right?)? In this case the first cylinder happens to be in same side than flywheel (sounds right)?

This should be easy because the lower engine is still open?

How about the camshaft timing position? If the first piston is in tdc position, how about the camshaft and intake/exhale valves?

I just install the camshaft x2 and turn it in the right position or what?

If somebody knows I would be grateful. And if there is somekind of videos or instructions.
