Doing this job right now.
Installed locating pin into old one before removing it like in video. Put pin in new one, went to drop it in and it won't allow me to drop it in at exactly the same position. I compared the flat bit at the ends, and the new crown one is at slightly different angle. maybe 10 degrees off.
Pin is still in. I can drop it in and put it in place, but it it at a slight angle. Is this normal? Any most importantly does it effect timing or whatever? Seems like even though it goes in at a slight angle, the sensor and the markings are still in alignment.
Had another look... what it is, is the splines are actually slightly out, so it's impossible to drop it into the original position. I can install it, it will just be rotated clockwise 10 degrees. Will that make a difference? alignment pins still installed.
Hope that makes sense.
Thanks
