Review on πŸ”§ Universal Dual Camshaft Engine Timing Sprocket Gear Locking Tool Kit - Cam Clamp Set, 9 Pieces - Car Auto Cam Gear Clamp and Holder Set by Edwin Kreps

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Low cost but not worth the risk for your expensive engine!

A friend bought this kit for me to install a new timing belt and timing after we installed his new water pump. Keep in mind this is not carbon steel as listed but red ABS plastic! Zoom in and you can clearly see mold lines, mold lines and index marks galore. Maybe the screws are carbon steel but I highly doubt it. Bottom line, I didn't trust this part to properly secure the camshaft sprockets at TDC as it is too soft and will most likely result in timing misalignment and consequent serious engine damage. . For a one-time use, you can get away with it, but is your engine worth the risk? I took no chances and rented a matching camshaft clamp from a local auto parts store.
