Review on Enhance Engine Precision with OTC (6680) Cam Tool Set for Ford 3.9L 4V Engine by Charles Lardieri

Revainrating 2 out of 5

As another review says the pins are in the sprocket.

As mentioned in another review the pins in the sprocket locking tool hold no torque at all and fall out immediately. The pins only push about 1/8 inch into the lever so it's not possible to use it for its intended purpose. It's trivial if you have a welder or are willing to take the time to find/make replacement pins. At this point you can just cut out a piece of steel of the same shape and put screws into it. For the price this toolkit is designed for, this isn't an issue to deal with. Cheaper tool kits available elsewhere come with two cam lock rods, a sprocket that won't fall apart, and two types of flywheel pins for different models. years (OTC fitted but had a turned pin and I needed a straight pin). Unfortunately, at the time I found out the tool was open and 30 days had passed so it was not subject to the return policy.

Pros
  • Hands free operation
Cons
  • Band
